Do you just skim over people's posts and reply to the parts you get offended with?

I read everyone's posts. I don't skim over anything. So $2,000 may be a bit of an exaggerated stretch, but $1,200 or even $400 is no different of the fact that they are far more expensive than I could afford to pay at any one time. That's working 40 hours per week for barely $1.50 over minimum wage.

Yes, I've got a crappy job. I realize that, but I'm doing something about it. I'm trying to get a new job, and hopefully I'll get it with the interview I have tomorrow.

Anyway, for as long as I've been working like that, I've learned to budget and do have some nice things, but they come few and far between in all of the bills and life. I've got no one to help me pay for anything. I work hard to struggle for all I make, but the rewards I eventually receive are twice as loved and enjoyed because I go through so much to earn it. So maybe my opinion of frivolous spending on "expensive" TVs and such is a little jaded based upon that fact.
