However, there have been times in my life when I had to take out loans, or use credit cards for the basics, due to underpaid employment. I'd like to hear how some of these cheapskates feel about the employment issue, especially those selling new cars to people. As much as I prefer to buy used, for many products, I am concerned about safety, and the cost of upkeep, if I can't do it anymore. I also worry about renting, or owning a home in a truly dangerous neighborhood if that's all that is affordable.
Short storyline: Lots of short stories about living a lower cash flow life.
Notes for the reader: Interesting and entertaining.
