This is a "conservative spender"?

Spaulding is an idiot no doubt. But it is also true that credit card companies are an unattractive aspect of our consumer capitalism.

Possibly many of us are just not equipped by evolution to be lied to all day, shown pretty things and sexy situations, then go home and eat our $100 a month food allowance in our frayed jeans and watch our old 19" TVs with rabbit ears.

Ha

Luxury, in my day we used to live in a box in the middle of a lake and watch TV on the radio.

I knew someone would get the reference.

Fabulous, although I'd take living in a shoe box with 26 people in the middle of the road and having to like the road clean with your tongue, over living in Zimbabwe, Darfur, or North Korea.

Those people I have sympathy for, Mr Spaulding not much.

Yeah, most "conservative spenders" I know rack up $70,000 in credit card debt. And, of course, the big bad credit card companies held a gun to Spaulding's head and forced him to use the plastic.

Awww, poooor babeeeee Spaulding. Did the mean ol' bank cut off your credit because you're stupid?

Peel me a grape.

Hey wasn't Spaulding the name of the grandson in Caddyshack? Great movie!

"You'll get nothing, and like it, Spaulding!"

Sounds about right.

Hmm...I work in a computer company for up to 13 hours a day, so seeing pretty things and sexy situations is highly unlikely especially since they turned off my secret tunnel to youporn.com. Maybe that's why I'm fairly frugal because I receive zero stimulation all day.
