I'm afraid this all sounds like a lot of comfortably-off middle-aged/old blokes whingeing about how the world's going to Hell in a handcart, the young people today, what are they like, etc etc, ie the same things my parents were complaining about 50 years ago, and their parents were complaining about 100 years ago.

Once it was how many servants you had, now it's how wide your telly is. It probably started out with who had the biggest cave. Sadly, it will always be with us and some people will always aspire to be more equal than others.

"Maybe i am odd. I was brought up to save until i could afford something and to enjoy the simple things in life.

Nope, not odd at all.
I've wanted a pair of A40's for months now, but every time i save the £500 another bill rolls in and it depletes the savings
Don't get me wrong, i've got the money, but thats set aside for other stuff and it feels like cheating if i dip into it. So i don't, and no credit is involved.

But, after selling some stuff, tonight is the night and the A40's are in my sights and i've been living on dust and drinking from puddles, but finally i can press the button and buy them

[Jonty2547]

The button has been pressed and hopefully i'll recieve them soonish.
It certainly feels better to save and earn the money than just chuck it on a never ending credit card
