61. Planning another cruise?
   
I had to put up with a very well off client BEGGING me not to charge my usual fees for alterations on a bunch of clothes she just bought, because "with the economy and all, we've already had to cancel a couple of cruises".

I made about eight grand that year and she was expecting ME to charge less out of pity for her lifestyle adjustments for the downturn in the economy at the time.

FACT: we survive. We may not love our financial situation, but we ****ing face reality and SURVIVE. There will ALWAYS be many with much less. Live within means and look for more simple, sustainable pursuits and diversions.
