I thank God every day my parents didn't spoil me into thinking money can buy you happiness, because these days it doesn't mean crap to me.
The average American has 8 credit cards and owes at least 20k on them altogether (from what I've heard). Me, I only have 1, and it's usually kept low unless I need it for emergencies. My part of town is in between a really ritzy suburb of Jacksonville and the country, and these yuppies who live out here drive around in their big old SUVs or Mercedes-Benz/BMW's like there isn't enough luxury to go around. Their homes were worth 300k+ and a lot of them are moaning because they're seeing foreclosures pop up all around.
It really makes me sick ... all the greed some of these people have...
