How being cheap will leave you broke.

I find wanting to sympathize with some of the folks in America today,and the hard times they have endured over the last several years. but I can't, not because I don't understand but because I do. These times are made harder due to the poor decision making ability and the lack of self control that American people have in this country today and the shift away from basic family values. Until we as a nation take back the principals that guided our grand-parents and to some extent our own parents we are going to be a lost and wondering generations, always relying on the government to have a safety net to catch us when we fall. I say don't make the bad choices that, for sure will have you falling, example children out of wedlock. drug abuse, being in an abusive relationship, marry a man / or women that can't be a financial partner as well as a sex partner. Spending more then you make, having credit cards, not staying physically fit,(later in life having high medical costs and missing work because of poor health.) All of these things lead to a bleak economic outcome in life, its not hard to make money if you have any degree of motivation the trick is how not to spend it on crap... or unwisely, (" A fool and his money are easily parted") this is ohhh so very true, good luck my fellow Americans I hope you the best even if you are being set up to fail every day in life, hopefully one day soon you will have an Epiphany and see how easy it is to make good decisions and reap your reward of financial freedom.
