Inflation – Has it arrived?

[scaredyclassic]

It requires a paradigm shift. Quality of life will not go down if you eat rice and beans and an egg and toast 3 x a week. Might even go up.

Is it deprivation?

Maybe. But burgers and crap snacksand the Misc crap I see in peoples shopping carts doesn’t look like improved quality of life.

Would I tell a broke dude to spend less on food and ride a bike? Uh yeah. He’ll I do it myself. Seems like perceived “deprivation” is a lot different than starvation.

Wants v needs.

We talk about it all the tome in ghe family. I’d share the ideas w someone who is struggling. There is no shame in going cheap.

Sounds like you have alot of experience with the daily nutritional habits of the poor… Spent alot of time with them up in Temecula I gather?

I have no experience with all of the daily habits of the poor but those that I do know of, and who my wife works with don’t have the money for fast food. It is to expensive.

I would be willing to bet (and I have no data to back this up) that the obesity and eating habits of the middle class and above are much worse then the poor.

Just a guess.

So that forced paradigm shift will be very helpful to the poor. What was I thinking?

Ok You win. There’s nothing they can eat.

I guess you perceive what I’m saying as a reverse Marie Antoinette instead if let them eat cake let them eat beans. The response seems to be but that’s boring.

Maybe I’m being a jerk. If so I apologize

I feel I’d rather have beans than nothing maybe a little chili powder. I d rather have boxed wine than nothing. And even though I could buy steak, I’d rather eat the beans and sometimes the cheapest wine and save the difference for a rainy day. I don’t feel deprived when I do that I feel happy.

I saved up money for a downpayment like that w lots of kids and expenses. Now I’m not saving Toward anything in particular but it’s a habit that’s tough to break

The tightwad gazette is the book that lays it all out

No I don’t win.

Why is the point so hard to understand? What is the problem here? Jeez I have repeated myself over and over and over. You can stretch a dollar in many ways, you have displayed plenty of them. At some point it doesn’t stretch anymore and that point varies with each family, with each old person, with each of us.

If inflation increases and wages do not keep up then those with less get screwed more. Why is that such a hard concept to fathom?
