Another random thought:beer: . I hate buying bed matress! Who says those things are worth half the money they charge for them. My mom just paid almost 2K bucks for a space memory foam matress:hammer: . I also hate to buy laundry detergent, a gallon of Tide is $15 bucks:eek2: . I hate buying shoes because by the time a find a conservative style I like they won't have my size in stock. I made the salesman take the shoes off the manequin last week:D .

If you act like you are about to bolt on'em, you'll get the REAL price for the mattress which is about $200.00 cheaper than the sell price. Mattress and jewelry about has about a 300% markup on them. The highest in all of retail. My serta was org. $1300.00. Went to Mattress Giant (jerks :vomit: ) saw it, liked it. It was on sale for $999.00. To make a long story short, ended up walking with it for $750.00 out the door, tax, delivery, and that was taking my old junk with them. My friend works at Conns right now. That same set, cost is about $450.00. She looked it up for me. Go figure.

No, one likes buying things that are a personal necessity.

It's much cooler to spend your money on all things fast. :banana: Or trying to make the fast faster. . .like the L, the four wheeler, the snow machine, the snow blower, etc. . .

You have to find the good in the bad. Because if you didn't buy the personal necessities then you would end up sleeping on a cold floor with a stinky butt and that ain't cool. :nono:

When you're married you'll find out what buying things you don't like REALLY is all about.

hehhehe... The glamorous world of managing investment properties.

Better way to get rich = Buy $40k house, invest $5k strategically, sell for $55k to nice little mexican family.

Repeat as needed.
