So what? Is this guy supposed to quit taking care of his own family just because the economy is bad?

“Oh, the economy is bad so I’m going to keep spending and close my bank account.”

After decades of frugality, we’re finally able to live comfortably. We just bought a 2020 F150 and a camper shell for cash. I’m not sorry.

He should’ t be either. He’s a great father fulfilling his first responsibility.

I’m not complaining about their ‘example man.’ I’m just tired of others being lied to by CNN, MSNBC, etc.

I’ve always lived below my means. Debt free and retired at 56. Yay! I pay cash for large purchases as you do. Currently saving for a replacement washer and dryer. 30+ years is long enough to wait - something’s gonna blow, LOL!

This article is just more election tampering by CNN as far as I’m concerned. The economy is not The Best Ever. And with our National Debt, we’re never going to turn this thing around. At least not in my lifetime. :(
