It all boils down to cognitive dissonance. You bought an Xbox but your friend got a PS5? Now you have to rationalize your purchase to yourself. One way of doing that is by convincing yourself that your choice of console is the superior one.
The ones that usually end up as losers are the "popular" highschool girls, that become pregnant at the ripe age of 20 and end up as single mothers with no prospects of further education or a meaningful career. If you make it through college, you are already ahead of the curve.
