Study or not, I thought the negative savings rate was only true if you did not include non-taxable savings, which is suggested by your quotation, correct? This is a minor point that is not meant to detract from the larger point here, which is obviously a good one.

I'm one of those guys making less money to live in Zion with five kids and a stay at home mom. I don't plan on bankruptcy and I should have enough to retire in style. My life couldn't be more perfect, as far as I'm concerned. So Haddow and anyone else in his camp can bite me.

Yes, you are correct. However, the trend is the same regardless of whether 401ks are included. Americans are spending more and saving less. That was my point. Last edited by BarbaraGordon; 06-28-2007 at 05:39 PM. |

As an MBA, I would be making more in consulting or investment banking, but my lifestyle is much better, I enjoy what I do, and I'm not poor. I can golf 18 with a cart on beautiful golf courses for less than an hour's wage. And I can take off pretty much anytime I want to get that round in. Take that Haddow. |
