A Conversation for Talking Point: Save or Spend?

The Internet

I want to be careful with money. I really, really do. I want to be able to save and buy important things, to make investments and to have a healthy savings account. But there's a problem. The technology I use to interface with the world at large, to talk to friends old and new and to post my rambling opinions on these talking points also allows me to clean out my bank account from the comfort of my own home in minutes.

I've got savings of a sort. Pensions and such. I can't say I've lost faith in the banks but I've had savings accounts since the age where banks try to make it fun. I can't say I had a obtained a lot of action through saving
I'm in control of my money. Like a person can be in control of a cannon. I point my money at all manner of places and have complete control of where it hits.
And yeah, you need to teach your children to save, I'm pretty certain on that. Getting good habits at an early age is rarely a bad idea.

But I'm not sure how valid my thoughts on saving money are, considering I decided to get drunk before a charity auction last weekend. I... appear to own a new hat from Belgium, now...
