What’s interesting about our National Debt at 22 Trillion?
It’s the same amount the US has already paid out for Reparations. (Great Society)

That is crazy!
Vote Democrat and they’ll pay for everything.
What about those of us who are living within our means?
We’ve always lived at or below our means. Even though I don’t need to, I still do. I rarely even buy clothes that are not on the clearance rack and absolutely never not on sale.
Never any credit card debt. Small mortgage and a small car loan, because I’m making more with the money invested.
Thanks for your posts/links. BTTT!
I confess I have $20k in low interest credit card debt. It’s my fault, hubby didn’t do it.
But since we have $2.2 million in liquid assets, I’m not worried, the debt is 0.9% of our liquid net worth. I’d dip into the piggy bank to zero out the balance, but hubby wants me to pay it off the hard way, month by month by month. He wants me to feel the pain and I suppose he’s right LOL.
Wife and I were as poor as church mice when we started. Banks wouldn’t loan us a thing. So when we got ahead we never borrowed. Lived in small cracker box house and drove old cars. Embarrassed the kids. But we’re comfortable now with some property to boot.
