Hey! This is Chaaos reporting live from in front of her handy dandy Mac Laptop Computer!
I gotta say that mac's are my all time favorite computer. I'd rather spend more money on this and get a good quality computer than get a cheap crappy computer and save for the moment.
But here's the thing about saving.
Sometimes you find a deal on something that you need, the items not in tip top condition and probably has major issues, but you still get it because you need it.
And it's a deal, so you think your being the real mastermind and saving tons!
But the quirk with that is that....
.....you might actually be getting a BAD deal, causing you to spend MORE money than if you'd just bought the more expensive and fully working one!
Why is this, you ask?
Because of what I'd like to call the "Cheaper to be Rich" theory.
Here it is:
A rich person gets a nice car that HARDLY ever breaks down and gets AMAZING gas mileage, everything works and taking care of it is a breeze.
A poor person gets a cheaper car, sometimes used, and they encounter tremendous difficulties like broken car parts, constant breakdown, terrible gas intake and such.
So the poor person ends up spending more than the rich person and therefore stays poor. WHAT A STRANGE THING!
Now you might think again before you get that "almost" in working condition item and actually spend just a little bit more as a sort of investment.
MORE ABOUT MONEY
Did you know that every time you buy something, you are in a way voting for it. Just supporting it and stuff like that.
AND
It's kinda weird, but insurance almost seems like betting against yourself.
So you pay your health insurance, and it's almost like just saying "here's some money on me falling down a staircase and breaking my neck."
But it also puts your mind at peace, so your not always worrying about it.
For some people, at least.
Kay, I'm done with that!
