| 02-12-2007 | I have noticed that our country rewards incompetence, The US and the countries of the EUropean Union also seem to do this. The incompetence I am talking about is the inability to manage a large business properly and profitably over a long period of time.

| 16-12-2006 | It's the same here in the US too, in that seemingly every day I get credit card offers, home load re-finance offers, and on and one it goes. These banks and lending institutions want your soul financially...

| 27-2-2006 | As a housewife, I believe couples in a marriage should treat each other as equals. My husbands job doesn't allow me to work because he travels so much. While he's away, it is my responsibility to take care of the children and bills. We work as a team and neither one of us have credit problem...more | Responsible Housewife |

| 19-11-2005 | Sad thing is that most spending is uneccessary. I used to work for a consolidation loan company and looking at people's credit records indicated that at least 75% of them had spent on things like lavish holidays, huge cars and designer clothes, ultimately producing massive debts. Most debt is p...more | Miss P |
| 10-11-2005 | Oh come off it, most men love to have a wife at home, even if it is just to do the housework, after all, Men don't want to spend their evenings and weekends doing jobs around the house do they? At least, if nothing else, the work is done for them, and dinner is ready when they come home. I don&#...more | Male with house assistant |
| 06-11-2005 | Very true, how can one hold one's head up in the street when one is spending 'ill gotten gains', ie hubby's hard earned cash?
