[QUOTE="rod, post: 891043, member: 5382"] Once again I have to disagree. When I first started UPS we saved and saved--- enough to put a healthy down payment on a house. I didn't own a new vehical for the first 20 years I was married. We didn't buy anything we couldn't afford. What I have witnessed in the last 20 years or so is that as soon as the new couple get married (and it just HAS to be an EXTRAVAGANT wedding) they run out and buy 2 new vehicals, a new house that is out of their price range, must own every fancy new electronic gadget that is put out, and live paycheck to paycheck without ever considering setting a few bucks aside for a rainy day or planning for retirement. I have a niece who has a 1/2 million dollar home (now worth about half that),drives a Mercedes and has her own tanning bed but her family has no health insurance (2 kids) . I find it hard to feel sorry for her when she goes into her "Oh woe is me" crying act about being broke. [/QUOTE]
