Are Mont Blanc Pens of the debbil?

Is it wrong for people to own expensive pens? Some folks buy them to wear - not to write with. Is this jewelry?

I heard that the First UPC in Little Rock gives out Mont Blanc pens with the church name on them.

Try Bics and save the money. They get the job done just as well.

Many years ago while in the insurance business and writing applications, it was recommended that the agent invest in a quality pen. There was no particular pen recommended, but a "Bic Banana" was not the ideal writing instrument for the professional who made their living by writing these applications. It was a matter of pride in profession rather than a show of jewelry. However, if an agent wrote a quantity of applications with "Bic Bananas", the home office would certainly receive the business as well as applications written with Mont Blanc's.
