Nobody is *forcing* you to buy what you can't currently afford, you know.


No, but the *******s sure do try to seduce you into the deficit spending
lifestyle, and they try to start us off early. Just go into any college dorm
lobby or study area and the place will be awash with credit card applications.
Guess who puts them there? Guess why?

Back before credit cards existed, people actually saved up money ahead of
time for major purchases, instead of all this "buy now and pay later"
instant gratification stuff.


Agreed.

Yep, just like everyone with something to sell, be it credit cards,
cars, beer or drugs (legal ones!). Pays to teach your kids
self-discipline very early on.
