Pinch Your Pennies


In this precarious economic age, we need to rethink our life style and our spending habits. Young people should start living more like retirees. We don't buy anything new unless the old one is broken. If we eat out, it's lunch rather than dinner. We find bargains at garage sales instead of shopping at the Mall. After we've accumulated too many "bargains" , we have our own sale. We do our own painting, decorating and yardwork, rather than hire professionals, and we stay out of the casinos most of the time. So if you're having problems making ends meet, talk to the old folks---we're smarter than you think.
