I’m going to make a list of anything I might need in the next several years that I can buy now. Couch...rug...sneakers..etc. mmmmm....maybe that is their plan to stimulate the economy, scare everybody into spending now to avoid the VAT later.
It’s a great idea. Plus, if you’re in a pinch, you can sell some of the items later, at a reduced price, and make a handful of money, or just save money in the Long run. Glenn Beck advised of this 2 years ago, and I thought he was a bit kooky at the time, but, to an extent, did it anyway. It’s really helping out now, and it hasn’t even hit the fan yet...
