Doesn't surprise me at all. I can remember when having a credit card was a rare thing. No one I knew owned a new car, extravagant house or took vacations to Disneyland or things like that. Entertainment was a TV or maybe a movie on Saturday night. Loans were not cheap, borrowed money was a monkey on your back. Now it's new this, new that, borrow, borrow, borrow. We see that here with guys contemplating spending $40, 50, 60K on a truck to haul a hobby tractor. Hey, it's their money, spend it like you want. But don't come back later complaining about not having enough money to do the other stuff you want.
Up here I see the same thing over and over and over. I'm in line at the checkout and every single person in front of me is paying for groceries with an EBT card 90% of the time. They have a fresh tattoo, a brand new smart phone, a Bluetooth thing in their ear and they go out and climb into a much nicer and newer car than we own, cross the street to the gas station and buy $50-100.00 of Lotto tickets. Honestly, I've seen it hundreds of times. And people wonder why you get so cynical about things?

I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
