BG45 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 *points at fellow scrimper and saver* Amen! If not for my parents I'd be sunk, I help with utilities, but I'm paying for grad school on dead end job pay. Now the irresponsible corporate titans make my savings worth less and less as they require more bailouts raising taxes, and lower interest rates so I'm making even less on my money in the bank.
