    Not even all the money in the world can make me the least bit attractive to the shallowest girl out there. :p

    Damn, ouch, that'd be a huge ego strike to someone!

    i dont even have a mattress... i pay 16 women from Tanzania (widely regarded as the country where the women have the world's softest hands) to hold me up whilst i sleep.


    1 of them is paid extra to collect the tissue each morning.

    Clearly, I was sold a bill of goods on this solid gold bed. I've thought your offer over and yes, I will trade it for your 16 women.

    How do you know they aren't already filthy rich and $500 to them is like $50 to most of us?



    VERY true - it's all perspective!


    i look at many of the people i work with and i know such can be quite true...and some of them are quite young! a lot fo people make a lot of $$$. also depends where you place importance. we all choose to spend or not spend our own $$$ on different things. hopefully we all manage to save too. :)
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    somebody asked about name brands on here the other day. I was unfamiliar with them.

    Yep, I plan for the future. Just remember that when you pay $400 - $1,000 for your clothes or purse. I don't.

    I'm so glad I've been cheap, it really helped me when gas was so high.

    I was the one who asked about some designer wallets, and I am happy to buy nice things for my girlfriend.....luckily, I didn't have to go sell my blood, or live on Ketchup sandwiches, to make up for the wallet's dminishing effect on my wallet.

    I plan for the future as well, thats why I have done my best to carve out a career that allows me to live a nice life now, and hopefully in the future as well.

    I love Ketchup Sandwiches!! I prefer the Jack in the Box packets of ketchup to the McDonalds Packets!

    Why does someone need to be judged by what they wear? Seems pretty judgemental to me. I have a couple of really nice bags that will last for the rest of my life, unlike the cheap ones. And I prefer classic to trendy.
    But hey, who am I to judge someone who wants to be trendy.
    And I am not in debt.

    It was a wonderful gift JoeX3.
    You made her happy and that is all that matters. Not what others may think.
    And the giftcards in there was such an awesome idea too. Very thoughtful.

    Thanks.

    I don't care what others think, especially if they knock someone for having privilege....in fact, my initial reposne was meant to have a mocking tone to it!

    i work hard and save up to afford the tiny bit of luxury that i allow myself. i scour the sale sections at dept stores all the time for the love of marc jacobs :) i have 4 "fancy" purses that i've accumulated over the past 3 years. they've held up quite nicely. other than that it's canvas tote bags for me.

    and working in retail is always great...cause ya gotta love that 40% discount!! i haven't paid full price for clothing in a really long time. i can't wait to take advantage of my 40% off sale starting in a week. good times!
    yes...i do feel like a human. i do not feel like a tree.

    I usually refrain from buying anything fancy if it aint on sale.

    I believe that learning how to spend wisely is just as important as learning a skill that will allow you to earn good dough.

    It is easier to cut your spending by 10-20% a year then it is to earn 10-20% more per year.

    that's great...I used to work at a really nice department store (The Hecht Company aka Hecht's) but after about 40 years, it went out of business and was bought by Macy's. I got really good deals as well (I don't think my discount was 40 percent though, that's something). My friend and I are going tomorrow, maybe to Macy's, I'll see what I can scour up!

    are you allowed to use coupons, in addition? our newspaper has coupons for Lord and Taylor or Macy's and it often excludes designer colgone, for example...which stinks!!!

    to other posters...Can I be sarcastic too? I figured our resident musician eyedclar(sp?) was bored at work earlier...so I wanted to see his reply and I did this thread. What a perfect reply that he smokes his $100 bills while he sleeps on his gold mattress.

    too funny, how did I know you'd be the first one to reply...I heard that you are so rich, your toilet paper is money.

    it's probably just me but every post you do comes off like you're a twelve year old girl
