yes, i will never understand why people don't use real money.......i, like it....lol

[quinner]

the introduction of the plastic card.(with it's high interest rates) was an invitation to fraudsters to have a great life,,,,,,

the high interest rates allowed the banks to write off lots of losses and still make massive profits...


recently i stood behind a family (2 adults, 2 children) at a supermarket checkout.....

the bill (mostlt food) came to £47.......it was duly paid for, using two different credit cards.......

needless to say.....i was shocked.....

ok...i donno...the next generation will be fine...im not wasting my time worrying about them..arent we raising them and our grandkids to be fine upstanding smart people...

i remember buying our first house, my inlaws and father didnt sleep at nights worrying cos we'd spent 7,779 pounds and had a mortgage of 12 pounds...then when i started driving they were worried sick cos wasnt it only men who were supposed to drive...and we never raised our kids right....we bought a tv for the bedroom and that sent them into a tailspin...what the hell did we need that for.....we had no sense, and we spent spent and spent with no thought for the future....when the 2nd car arrived at our house my mother in law took to the bed for a week with worry.....

i worry a lot in general.....but how the next generation will cope isnt on my radar at all...they will cope just as all previous generations did...and they will have the same complaints about their following generation lol..

No, I don't go round looking in people's supermarket trolleys and observing how they choose to pay for their goods, and I'd be pretty miffed if I thought
someone was behind me in the queue monitoring my movements and reporting them on the www. They paid for them; how they pay is nobody else's concern.

obviously it is not your concern.....you seem only to be concerned what i do....

you have posted many things on the www as to what you assume do i as fact.....yet you spurn an observation i made (just by being on a checkout queue and unable to not to overhear a couple talking to each other in a raised voice) that was fact....

i see the skibbereen eagle has trained you very well....

i await more of your wild accusations about me.....on the WWW....
