[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 84028, member: 1246"] Ben Stein has always been a big fan of saving money. He has a new book out...... ************************************** Author and finance expert Ben Stein's new book, "How To Ruin Your Financial Life," is a tongue-in-cheek look at money and financial planning. In it, Stein lists 55 rules to help readers figure out what kind of financial shape they're in. Stein tells [B][I]The Early Show[/I] co-anchor Rene Syler[/B], “People know that there are a million books, telling them how to get rich. My book tells you how to get poor and ruin your life. If you recognize yourself in it, you’re doing something wrong. Turn around and do the other thing.” *************************************** I believe it's true that folks forget how to save $$ because HDV TV came out and then plasma TV came out (or vice-versa) and they have to have the newest, the best, the longest vacation, the most exotic restaurant experiences, etc. etc. I actually have a relative who is 62 yrs. old. and made the statement, " I should start saving for retirement pretty soon." DUH!!!! This person is a teacher........35 years. He should know better. I think "saving" is the key. You must put aside $ for the proverbial rainy day. So what if your car is 10 yrs. old as long as it still runs. You wear denim.....guess what? Denim has not gone out of style since old Levi invented jeans. The shirts/ blouses at Saks & Nordstrums don't last any longer than the shirts from Walmart.......AND you can wash the Walmart ones yourself instead of paying a dry cleaner. There are hundreds of ways to save.....just do it. [/QUOTE]
