All meant in good fun coolhand
Like, wow I noticed that this was posted by like Doctor Bong man, and this dude has got to have like a really bigger, like massive view of reality that us mere mortals just like man don't cant ever even like see man.
I've heard of Robbins before, but not the Doc. Like wow man a guy claiming to live in Tijuana using a screen name like Doctor Bong just may be the guy to follow.
Looking at my YTD tracker performance, maybe this is just the ticket. Oh, wait, damn drug tests, guess total consciousness will have to wait.
Robbins does make good points, anyone paying attention knew most of this.
A few years ago conversations at work while people were getting ready to get on the road Mondays used to revolve around new vehicles, flat screen TVs and the latest electronic game for the kids. Now it's mostly about the J.O.B. and if there is any OT involved. People are not spending, even these people who are employed at a good wage. I am no longer the only over thirty person driving a 10 year old vehicle. (yeah I've always been a curmudgeon). The newer BMWs, Lexi, Accuras in the lot all belong to the new hires. For the first time coworkers are talking about paying off credit cards and not using them any more. In my limited little world, consumer spending is way down.
Can't speak for savings but I believe that most are contributing at least 5% to TSP mainly because us over thirty's (mostly 40s and 50s) have talked up the value of matching funds.
Just more ramblings by me, man
