In our Global- Society that we live in now with all the technological advancement that have been made have brought down the worth of things almost down to nothing. For example, it is not what you pay for if you are buying a TV, Raidio, phone, but the monthly payments that would buy you many of these items many times over throughout the year.
You have a home, a car; you want to travel, invest on gold, antiques and arts; or you want to buy a computer; who is your American idol that you listen to on the media; where do you park your car when you go places; how many times you buy a new stuff because a better item has came up in the store and internet that you could use, better than the one you bought yesterday or last year......
How about books that you read or news that you watch, every day a new event, a new "how to" information in a book or program. A new game on the computer, a new application, a new update, a new virus......Our spiritual advisors, our laws and lawyers; our education system with its regurgitating methods of teaching and rising tuitions that students cannot catchup with to pay off. Jobs that are temporary on daily basis......
Our average salaries cannot suffice paying off the demands of the raising costs of products and food and constant changes that are being made that demands us to buy, to keep up with such new way of living, before we get outdated. It does not worth saving money any longer, due to almost no interest that are being given to the customers of the banks. You may think at times that it may cost more to save your money, than spending your money with such rates of inflation that are effecting the world in such Global-Economy we live now.
Maybe it is the end of this economic system and the beginning of a new one.
