Don't Feel Guilty Spending $$$

Honestly I have met one or two that should be ashamed but many more who had priorities in order.

Nor would a woman feel so about the new pair of shoes she just acquired. A pair a day keeps the wolf away. Of course, the $50K to construct the shoe closet must also be included. The guys with the best audio toys have wife's with huge shoe collections, they go together.

I think that is awesome. I need to go into business making handbags. That proves that if you make it, someone will buy it. I hope it is made in the USA. Just like msn to start the article with a little class warfare with the statement that: "Clearly not everyone in America is still feeling the strain of the recession". What the little person who wrote the msn article does not understand is that the opportunity to sell a $203,000 handbag exists and that the sale of a $203,000 handbag does more good for the people who sold the handbag, and the manufacturer of the handbag then the person who bought the handbag.

Guilty or not, if you don't manage your money, it'll manage you!

I feel so much better now. In fact, I recently bought a vintage 1986 Porsche 911 Turbo that I am fixing up. I felt guilty for a few days. Every time I drive it and work on it I feel good. Every time I listen seriously to my stereo system and upgrade it, I feel good. Guilty? Yes, when I think of starving dying people. My solution? Help those I can and enjoy the blessings I have. Maybe in the afterlife I will be judged not by the things I have bought, but by the good things I have done for others.
