This afternoon, Oprah is going to help us weed out the things we can live without. She is following two families that are not allowed to spend for 7 days. I hope she can get past the common sense stuff and show us some original ways to appreciate and utilize what we already have. Maybe growing up in the Midwest makes me more “practical,” but it blows my mind that people have been living beyond their means for this long. We are all guilty of it in some way. I went to an overpriced school during a time when they were giving away loans like candy, some people bought houses and others got there by credit card. Bottom line: don’t spend what you don’t have. Our problems will never magically go away. If you’ve been laid off or money is tight, it is time to face the beast and change your ways.
