Can You Afford to Work?
Can You Afford to Work Outside the Home?
Can you afford to work for peanuts?
Telling people what I do for a living normally evokes a stream of responses such as, ‘That’s not a proper job,’ or ‘You need a job with benefits,’ or ‘You can’t afford to work like that.’ Most times though, the conversation ends up boiling down to something along the lines of “but you must take whichever job you can get, even if the pay is low.” On this point, I disagree very strongly for a few reasons: Continue Reading…
Need vs Want
“Mom, I need…”
“Mom, I need some new Nintendo DS games.” “Dad, I need a new stereo for my car.” “Honey, the kitchen needs to be remodelled.” “Darling, the car needs replacing.” “We really need an overseas holiday.”

The last fuel price increase here in South Africa was around the 5 to 6% mark. Once the fuel price rises, of course the retailers hop on the gravy train and up their prices as well, often by up to 50% on an item. Where in hell’s name do economists get their information from? The stone age? As the saying goes, “You can fool some people some of the time, but not all people all the time.” Sometimes I wonder when it comes to so-called ‘economists’…obviously they are far too well-paid to think about having to save money, unlike us mere minions who actually work for every cent we have…
