Oh well, I haven't been here very long, and don't have much time to spend here. So I guess you could say my perspective is not jaded.

I don't think she is being negative at all. Different people have different attitudes about things, and she is trying to put her finger on the pulse of this group, so to speak. I, for one, am very interested in hearing how other people live. I don't think everyone needs to live or think the way...

That's exactly it. That is why I worked very hard to make sure I would have it. I didn't want to be a have-not, I guess. To me, part of beign self sufficient is having means.

I agree with Kala. I would never want to spend all my time traveling and shopping. Ugh. It would get exhausting and feel empty. Nothing is more satisfying to me than curling up on the couch with my dogs and watching an old movie. BUT, sometimes it is fun to buy a shiny new toy or visit a place...

I agree that you can have great fun without spending any money at all. Sometimes the simple pleasures are the best. On the other hand, I refuse to live my life in a state of grim denial of pleasure the way I see some people do. I swear some think it is sinful to spend money on something that is...

Well, when I wasn't making enough to do the things I wanted to do, I took a second job. And then I kept looking until I found a better job. I worked really, really hard to get to the point where I wouldn't have to fret over every penny because that was a priority for me. I grew up poor and did...

I admit I do like to go out once in a while, and to travel when I can. I enjoy some of life's little luxuries like having my hair professionally colored and highlighted, and getting my eyebrows waxed. My philosophy is that you only live once, and you can't take your money with you when you go...

Honestly, I don't think anyone should wear a tube top under any circumstances. No one looks good in them.

I think we should all invest in these body suits.

I just bought a bicycle and now I can't use it!! I don't want it to melt.

My child is still alive. My dog is not.

I have had many dogs in my life and they were all special and precious to me, but one was more so. I actually have his picture, leash, paw print, and favorite toy on a shelf- I guess it is a shrine of sorts. I didn't even do that for any of my family members- not even my parents. Sometimes a...

I don't see anything wrong with getting your dog's name tattoed on your body- but putting it on the foot cheapens it. I would want my boy's name close to my heart. Every time I look at a photo of my dog I think about the fact that no man has ever loved me as much as he did. I would give...

I didn't know they still made rotary phones.

Ha. I always say I never worry about anyone trying to steal my identity. They would bring it right back. And I agree with Kala. People who aren't preparing really don't think they need to. They aren't looking for people who are preparing.

I never wanted children. I got pregnant. I got on board with the idea. One was definitely enough, but she really is the light of my life. I would not change anything.

I am good at #1; wish I was good at #2.

I agree with you FC- life is so very short. There really is no point in being serious about anything. Laugh or cry, I say. I would rather laugh.

I don't get it.
