Hey guys and gals I've been lurking on the site for a while but want to post more often. I had to laugh to myself when I walked into the family room while my sister was watching "Say Yes to the Dress: Bridesmaids." I happened to walk in as soon as a woman was justifying buying a dress that was far out of her price range. "You can't take money to the grave, so you have to spend it all while your alive. That's what I'm doing with my money," was her main argument.
A part of me just accepts this because if you don't have people out there spending their money, then you have no business. The other part of me feels bad for the uneducated people in the world who could be doing better things with their money. I have a few friend who have sunk a lot of money into their Honda civics, (I am a huge Honda fan; NSX especially) but it is crazy to think about the fastlane businesses they could've started with that same money. MJ's book goes over all these aspects in detail and I am a huge supporter of living below your means until you can afford what you truly want.
I'm a business noob but will try to contribute to the forum when I can!
