Not quite. As a person whose job it is to expouse the values of saving. I see far too many people these days spend way too much money and not have a single thought about their future. Apparently once we had a 60 year old break down and cry cos she suddenly realised that she had next to no money to retire on.

I also have a bunch of people that pay for a valuation on their homes annually just so they can refinance their homes to pay for consumer debt.

I call this generation (mine) "Generation NOW". Getting things now just cos we can and not thinking of the consequences. I mean, I've heard of people on very average incomes with $70k in revolving credit facilities. I mean who needs all that? To put it in G&E terms, that's a whole lotta shorts........

/sermon over
