An economy question for DUers
« on: September 13, 2011, 03:48:36 PM »
Dear lurking DUers (Notice that I didn't call you 'boar hog tits? That's because I'm a caring fictional spirit-guide willing to reach across the aisle.),

I hate to admit it, but because of the bad economy I am more in debt that what I'd like to be. Actually, I'm more in debt than I should be.

I've been kind of hard on the unicorn keeper for a while now, but I finally decided to try something. Since he is alleged to have graduated from Harvard I began wondering if he might actually be correct and the rest of us wrong. With this in mind I decided that I would give him the benefit of the doubt and try things his way.

For an entire month I forgot about my debt. I just put it out of my mind. Then for that entire month I spent money like crazy on anything that I desired. I didn't care about the price. If I wanted it, I got it. Except for stealing money from hard working people I essentially followed his plan to the letter.

Now it's a month later. I've ran through the calculations. Not only am I still in debt. I'm in debt even worse than I was before. Not just a little worse either. A whole lot worse in debt.

So I ask you lurkers from DUnceland what did I do incorrectly?

As I admitted earlier I did NOT steal any money from hard working people, is that where I went wrong?

If so, unless I stole more money from hard working people than the combined total of my original debt and what I spent like crazy would it have made much of a difference?

Thanks for all your help.

You have to steal money from hard working people and their unborn kids/great-great grandkids.

You also forgot to print some money too.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Steal more money? Even from unborn kids? Print more money?

Damn. This is starting to get complicated. It's almost like it would be easier if I just cut back on my spending.

That is right wing radical crazy talk. Don't you know you have to spend your way out of debt? Just ask our Vice President.

Bingo, you have to spend money to make money.  Make sure you have those reward credit cards, it is like they are paying you to spend your money!
