You might think I’m crazy
I’ve been preaching the gospel of frugal living for a long time and people have had their laughs at my expense - mainly in the real world, but to a lesser extent on the Internet as well.
Who is laughing now?
The non-recession we’re in is about to be the Greater Depression and a lot of people are about to not only lose their homes but their jobs and their savings as well. People who have worked hard all of their lives are going to be starting from zero again and all because of a few corrupt people in positions of authority.
Guess what? We put these people in office. You and me - the voting public. That’s right folks, it is our fault.
I’m above such juvenile behaviors as “I told you so”, but suffice it to say that I hope you will learn to listen to people in the future when they tell you that you need to spend wisely and save voraciously.
It appears that this site will be getting a lot more hits in the near future but not because people want to learn frugal living, because they have no other choice.
