Overrated: status symbols/expensive labels
I'm thinking BMW/Mercedes/etc, designer clothing,etc
I always find it amazing how companies can sell stuff that no one really needs.
Underrated: Basic car repair skills
Changing a flat tire, boosting a dead car, changing an air filter, etc. Maybe it helps that I drive an old car that needs a lot of TLC, but sometimes it amazes me how helpless some people get when the simplest thing goes wrong.
