[Proverbs 3-5]

I guess my point (which I left out) is that we seem to live in a society of instant gratification. Right out of high school or college we have to have a new stereo, a new big screen TV, a new car, palatial digs and then say we don't have enough money for necessities.

Pretty much the opposite extreme of my 90 year old mother-in-law who still saves every scrap of tin foil and twisty-ties off every loaf of bread even though she has no money worries.

Won't get an argument from me

Todays Americans haven't the faintest idea of what hard times are and the young generation is spoiled rotten

I was born during the depression and God help this current lot if hard times ever come they won't know what hit them

You were in fat city back in my day if you had chicken for Sunday dinner

Now you can go to McD's and gorge all day on it for peanuts
