Well, I just watched the first hour of the MC Hammer Story, and if I've learned anything, it's that the money never runs out. So I'm just gonna keep ballin' out of control in my Land Rover and carry on like normal. Funny thing is, I'm on the verge of purchasing a Range Rover. Holding onto money is just going to make the economy worst, you know.

I hardly spend anything on myself. With loan repayments and phone that comes first. Living at my parents house at the moment whilst I search for a full time job so that saves on bills and food. Its not a great time folks, especially for a fresh of of uni graduate. I hear ya man....I've been recently graduated since last May, jobs were hard to find then now it's impossible

Well, I haven't started to cut back, but I have been doing some extra things to get extra money. One is selling plasma and blood whenever possible. Then I went back to selling body parts on the black market (not my parts though, that would just be silly).

Cut my cell phone minutes down, cut back to basic cable instead of all the extra channels. I'm going to shop around for cheaper car insurance as well. I buy in bulk when I can, even though it's just me and the kidlet.

Serious question here.
Why is everyone cutting back & why would i have to?

I try to save as much as possible anyways. Yeah, not spending may not help the economy, but a major part of the reason we're in such a crisis now is people living well beyond their means and not preparing for the inevitable downturn.

Getting fired and waiting for a hearing on unemployment certainly offers plenty of motivation, buuuuut I was already in cutback mode. Spending less on crap at thrift shops, not eating out (actually, losing my job and its strange-ass hours helped in that I don't have to resort on fast food for damn near every meal and can eat at home whenever I feel like it), etc. But the Giant Ass- Severance Package kind of helped out a bit.
