You made a lot of really good points.<br /><br /> I couldnt agree more. reminds me of when I tried to explain to a friend thats very in love with money that her horses would kick and shit in her $40,000 horse trailer. How absurd I thought a price to pay for a glorified stock hauler.<br /><br /> Most of the ludicrus things in life are nothing more than shrines to certain type peoples egos. Like that Church on I-40! Wow is that an example!<br /><br /> I wish more of those ultra materialistic people realised that so many of us are NOT impressed with anything except how shallow they are, and their stupidity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7489980026578008309.post-11658869813037054172009-05-28T06:30:57.217-05:002009-05-28T06:30:57.217-05:00Maybe that's why the economy crashes every 75 year...Maybe that's why the economy crashes every 75 years - to give us all time to reevaluate and reprioritize what is really important.

I've known far too many who worked only when they felt like it. <br /><br />Hmm, I wonder if your husband's attachment to "things" will ease without a full-blown crash? Meaning, I hope it doesn't take losing everything before he distances himself from the trap of attachments. <br /><br />Keep your head up! My fingers are crossed that it won't last long...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04897998579496410028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7489980026578008309.post-23011252097267338752009-05-24T11:54:17.720-05:002009-05-24T11:54:17.720-05:00Life has never been about money for me.

I've always made a fair amount of money myself, so most needs are met. <br /><br />Unfortunately, my husband sees things differently. When he wants to buy something, it is always the biggest most expensive thing. He is far too attached to "things"<br /><br />Now we find ourselves in a position of "needing" money, and having to sell some of those precious "things". I could care less about them, if it keeps the family on top, but I see what it's doing to him and my son...and now it makes me sick.<br /><br />I'm with you on money.Grandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18235214310161945177noreply@blogger.com
