Actually no. I live with in my means. I will be taking on debt in a couple of years when I buy a house but I plan on having a 20% down payment and a 15 year mortgage.

But I know a lot of co-workers that are in that situation. One came by my office to talk about the $3,000.00 she had just spent on camera equipment. The next week she was talking about how she was so broke she had to borrow money from her parents to buy a tank of gas. The kicker is that she knows how to handle money but she chooses not to.

Her motto is, "I want it. Gimmme!"
