Interesting observation here, and mostly true. However, I associate only with people like myself, but are thrown into having to deal with everyone through my work. This is where you see what the real pattern actually is. The real pattern is that most of the population are "battlers' and...

People who live in..... Australia.

Well, here's the thing; I am a product of broke parents who had no financial knowledge. Dad (bless him; a great man) died as a pensioner, and Mum is still on one, and is negative and bitter. So, what do you do? a) become a bi-product of your surroundings and make excuses your whole life for...

I find that by organising my finances, it allows me to lead the life I want.

Hey, I've seen this same guy in about 5 other cities..... Amazing how he gets around.

Naah; sorry Trace; that gold colour is so....nanna. Avoid it like the plague, or be branded an old b*stard before your time. :D Me; I'm picturing my next car; a silver Audi R8 convertible. YES! Just kidding. I'm dreamin' of course. I'll probably settle for the A4 for my mid-life crisis.

That's true; some old people did go through tough times. In this woman's case, I'm sure smoking a King's ransom in ciggies certainly wouldn't have helped her cause. And let's not forget; she bought a brand new Kingswood while she was renting. Now, that is two very large financial mistakes, and...

aaah, but Trace; you need to put up a very big sign at the start of the caravan park enterprise to forewarn the residents that they are only there temporarily and to look at making other arrangements, and leave it there until the bulldozers move in... I mean, they shouldn't have to take any...

Yesterday we had to repair an older ladies car - 1975 Kingswood. She has had it since new, but it is now pretty stuffed. Still goes ok, but for how much longer? She came in originally a couple a weeks ago for a service, and mentioned that in her last service there was a note to get something...
