Actually quite a bit of Americans are in debt. I live in the middle of nowhere and nearly everyone around here is in debt. My parents are not as well as my neighbors. Roughly 80% of the kids at my High School had families in debt, but that is because they feel they have an image to uphold.

And with the almighty dollar falling in value coupled with gas prices getting inflated so companies like BP/Shell/whatever can make every dollar they can before a mandatory alt-fuel switch… you are gonna see debt issues get even worse as well as the housing forecloseur(sp?) and crime rates.

It is not inaccurate Erica… majority of Americans are in debt. Now, you have good debt and bad ones, of course.

Mona, no matter how much money one has, it never builds nor reflects his/her charachter. It does not matter if you want or do not want to be like me; you do not know me to begin with. There is no need to make it this personal.

If I am “argumentative”, it is less because of that and more because of your displeasure with someone challenging you repeatedly (though in this case it was more of an innocent joke, really)

I threw in a smilie face to calm you down. But it appears the earlier comment of me having more savings than you was, I guess, uncalled for; all it did was reflect arrogance, yeah? I admit it. I just reacted to your comment… which I, frankly, found slightly arrogant. But as they say: two wrongs never make a right, no?

Here I am trying again, am throwing another smilie… and I mean well

“And am glad you save up more than half of North Amercians (who are all in debit)”

Whoa – What’s up with the inaccurate generality? Not all North American are in debt. I’m not, and neither is my fiance.

Good that I don’t have close what you have. I don’t want to be like you.

Easy there… It wasn’t supposed to be taken seriously at all. Lighten up.

And am glad you save up more than half of North Amercians (who are all in debit)… though I doubt you come anywhere close to what I have, but that is a whole different story.

I hate pills… but I’ll take one to calm you down. Yallah, smile

I do save my money. I got more money than you or half the people in north America under 30. You seriously need to get a grip. You are very argumentative. I wrote this article to be humorous that people poof.. mess up, but it’s not THAT bad.

Seriously.. take a chill pill.

Didn’t you just wright an article rambling about how important it is for one to stay on top of his/her finances?

Hayah ya bent… make up your mind. Shall we spend, or shall we save?
