Possessions

Possessions ...

Do not allow your possessions to possess you.

Times are definitely tough...especially for those of us in the 99% group. Tough is probably putting it mildly. We all need to adjust our minds and how we buy and we need to separate "want" from "need".

My generation was the first to rely on credit cards. In my parents time if they could not afford it they did not buy it or they saved up for it.
In my generation we put it all on plastic- buy now- pay later.

We need to go back to how the older generation did it- it can be hard and it does take discipline but it can be done. What happens when we run up our credit and dept is we allow our possessions to posses us.
We end up working longer and worrying more and not even enjoying all these things that we bought that we are working longer and harder for.

Simplify your life.
