Default Re: Are your friends frugal?

People have told me that all I care about is money and that money is the root of evil. Here goes again; Ben Franklin said "At present you may think yourself in thriving circumstances and that you can bear a little extravagance without injury; but, for age and want, save while you may - no morning sun lasts a whole day". People do not pay attention to their money and because you are a saver they come to you in times of need, then disappear when their need is filled. Thus, I avoid others when going shopping, etc. We took my dtrs. friend to an event where the tickets were paid inclusive of the food. Do you know she did not want to eat the food and was upset there was no money for candy or ice cream. My dtr did not enjoy the evening - so we will not be able to take her again. Folks, I am getting closer to revelation: small hint: I am considered wealthy-I AM financially wise.
