Ok boss. Half of Americans have less than 400 in savings and you wonder why a thousand dollars is a major purchase?!?!


Ridiculous

Americans don't save money, and live outside their means who would've thought

That's not stopping iphones and ipads from flying off the shelves


what does that have to do with I said

1k purchase is not a lot of money especially for electronics

anybody with a 650 credit score can go to best buy and finance an ipad

saving 200 dollars a month until you can afford to cash out isn't bad idea, you can't save for five months before buying an ipad

Most people get those phones through carriers and pay it off monthly.

ATT charging 1000 but paying it off in 24 months for a tablet that you gotta pay extra for internet connection.

On top of that it's not even MACOS so you can't really download anything like a traditional laptop.

Talk about getting got, I never understood the ipad kraze, they can't really do anything.

I've been sitting here confused for the last year thinking about this. This pandemic wiped out so many jobs yet the economy is doing numbers... I see the smoke and mirrors but I can't grasp it so I'll just stay out of the way and keep paying my debt down because something has to give soon..

One minute it's illogical to have a "savings", then the next yall clowning people with no "savings" and saying they are starving. If a nikka said he had $150g under his mattress, yall would call him dumb for not having his money work for him. If he has his money working for him, he's a broke boy because he doesn't have a savings.

Expanding your means is actually the better move in a lot of cases, and easier.
Living within your means doesn't always have to apply to working class individuals nor does it have to refer to money either

It's a philosophy we can all adopt if we want to continue living on this planet
