let us be clear
I'm not a rich person
many on this list are not rich persons
we each have different priorities
regarding how to spend meager sums
I drive a '93 Saturn
I don't eat at fancy restaurants
I literally built my own house
I purchase clothes second hand
I wear 4 layers in the house during the winter
rather than pay for 70 degrees
I've never purchased a new piece of furniture
these are my choices

Fond regards,
George
