Bassturbeb, I love you. But, when American companies Like say, Levi's Jeans for example, give thier CEO's a 22 million dollar bonus for shutting down and moving them to China/Singapore/Mexico and VietNam, don't you find that disturbing.
BTW, I have several credit cards and no balance on any one of them. I pay cash for big ticket items like cars, which on the whole are a really poor investment wouldn't you agree? Especially expensive American ones?
You see things from the invetor/business side but I see things from the introspective side, what you say is true but my point is we need to fix the way most americans do business in thier daily lives so they stop the reckless behavior when it comes to personal finance. Most people, if not the majority of our population are fiscally inept and generally uneducated in the art of money. Typical example would be the fool who waits for his big refund check each year from Uncle Sam. Nothing like giving the Goverment a free loan that makes them interest and you nothing. But Ahh that check!
Teaching personal responsibility is what is needed. If not most will never naturally be able to acquire it. We need to fix a lot of things in this country. Believing that it will fix itself and doing nothing but casting the critical eye will only makes you more blind to the reality.
The government of this country and the administration there of has veered way off the course of it's original intent. More a kingdom than a free democracy each day.
