I've never been a proponent of cash handouts. People don't know how to control their own finances, so giving them more money is not going to change that. The problem with most of the western world is over-extension. Everyone tries to get away with having too much, usually coming in the form of debt. People wrack up massive amounts of debt with no real plan to alleviate themselves of it.

+1 my friend. Which is why I do not have a credit card and never will. My debit card works just fine. And if I don't have the money for something, then I don't need it.

What I have, I own. And I do not owe a dime to anyone. Most of my friends are constantly in debt. And they aren't smart enough to figure out how they got there.

This is a big reason why I will never get married, as most women I know are terrible with money. I have done just fine by myself. No bills + No debt + No car payments = more money to use to go to Lambeau.

Thats great Ironman, having no debt is the way to go.

But I do have to comment on your last sentence my friend, "some" woman may not be good with money, but I know that I am. I dont expect extravagances nor do I want or need them to be happy. I am not a big shopper, if I absolutely need something I will buy it and it is with cash if I dont have the cash then I dont get that item. So there are some of us out there that are good with money you just havent found that right one yet. 🙂 But to share your life with someone there isnt any money in the world that can replace that.

To say women are bad with money is a stereotype.

I do think there's a big difference in what kind of debt you are. If it's from buying stupid stuff, then ya you're screwed but debt can also be a good thing. Some people have no debt but are also worth nothing. As long as your debt is going toward building something up it's not always a bad thing

We just need jobs to get on the rebound. We need more efficient/quality American based production, innovation, and education. We also need tax cuts... across the board.

I was not referring to ALL women. Of the women I have known, or been with, MOST have been very bad with money. I am just going on my experience.
