[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1754487, member: 198"] Yes my point was actually that things aren't always what they seem. And the fact that most people spend based on what they make (along with spending more than they make) is why. A doctor or attorney that does that, and most do, are about three paychecks from bankruptcy like everyone else. The house and cars are just stuff. And there are plenty of drivers and lots of feeder drivers that can be compared to doctors and attorneys financially. But, as you said, that human nature has most of them in the same situation. I consider "better off" not having a mountain of debt that will still be there if I lose my job or can't work for the same pay. I'd rather make $90k/year and be on my way to paying off my one small car payment and house than make $200k and be buried by a mountain of debt for the next 25 years. [/QUOTE]
