Recession? Sex is cheap.
well, surprise surprise after months and months of "is it?" "isn't it?" the question looks to be getting a bit of a YES. It looks like the United States is heading towards a recession.
First things that comes to mind; you know when a girl has a mole and is ugly they call it a mole, but when a girl is beautiful like say Cindy Crawford and she has a 'mole' they call it a 'beauty mark' uh huh. Well if you call a recession say 'a break from spending' or 'time to spend more time at home' 'or a spending holiday' perhaps we too can make a 'recession' less scary or ugly. It's doesn't all have to be bad, instead of tightening our belts, we can spend less and just take our pants right off...
First - everyone spends to much f&cking money on crap. I know because i've got kids and they want want want, they have been taught to be little consumers by the media and frankly also by their sometimes ridiculous can't say no parents. Now i'd like to say that people the consumers are just the idiots; you know you shouldn't spend what you don't have but hey - you've got a credit card so you do spend too much.... what you don't figure on is this massive thing called interest sometimes to the tune of 18-24%. But it's not just stupid people it's governments. They all overspend, they're all in debt; the U.S. has massive debt. They've spent what they don't have and they don't have a bank to foreclose on their house --- so they just keep doing it.
Somewhere, somehow we all decided we should spend all are time and money buying cheap shit made in China and then we have debt and messy, cluttered homes. If we only bough crafted good things and far less of them, because they'll cost more and stopped equating 'havism' with being important or special we'd all be better off.
There is an upside to the fact that this year or next you won't be able to afford to go to the movies or out for dinner....you'll have more sex. Sex is cheap, thrilling and unless you don't use birth control shouldn't cost you anything more down the road.
So keep your credit card in your wallet and hang your pants on the chair. It's time to 'spend more time at home.'
