消费文化旨在诱导或鼓励人们摆阔性的挥霍浪费。这种文化所倡导的道德标准是，有钱建豪宅，买昂贵服装，吸引和占有最美的女人在道德上就是正确，有价值的。这时的物品就象鲍德里拉所说的那样已经成为地位的象征，而不是仅仅满足基本的需要。因此，人们应该听从本能的驱使，&作为消费者的人将享乐看成是自己的义务，享乐和满足就象是一种事业&。鲍德里拉指出消费意识形态的欺骗性在于其&倡导的满足、富裕、享乐和'冲破节检的旧樊篱'&。德莱塞在《巨人》中正是表现了这种消费意识形态。妇女、服装和豪宅已成为地位和权力的象征。《金融家》所预示给柯帕乌的是&公寓、四轮马车、珠宝和美物；整个大都会都要被一个人的权力所激怒；一个伟大的国家也要因为一种不能控制的力量而愤怒填膺；充满了无价珍宝的大厅；无与伦比的豪华宫殿；整个世界都惊叹地阅读着一个熟悉的名字&。当然，在整部小说里我们很少发现柯帕乌有抽烟饮酒的嗜好，但他却始终沉溺于性乱交之中。

Cruelty of disposition; malice and ill-nature; that most anti-social and odious of all passions, envy; dissimulation and insincerity, irascibility on insufficient cause, and resentment disproportioned to the provocation; the love of domineering over others; the desire to engross more than one's share of advantages; the pride which derives gratification from the abasement of others; the egotism which thinks self and its concerns more important than everything else, and decides all doubtful questions in its own favour;—these are moral vices, and constitute a bad and odious moral character: unlike the self-regarding faults previously mentioned, which are not properly immoralities, and to whatever pitch they may be carried, do not constitute wickedness.

性情的残忍、狠毒和乖张——这些是所有各种情绪中最反社会性的和最惹人憎恶的东西——妒忌，作伪和不诚实，无充足原因而易暴怒，不称于刺激的愤慨，好压在他人头上，多占分外便宜的欲望，借压低他人来满足的自傲，以&我&及&我&所关的东西为重于一切、并专从对己有利的打算来决定一切可疑问题的唯我主义——所有这一切乃是道德上的邪恶，构成了一个恶劣而令人憎恶的道德性格。这与前节所举只关己身的那些缺点是不一样的。那些缺点正当说来不能算是不道德，不论达到怎样高度也不会构成毒恶。
