House, one car, student loans. Car is the only questionable debt to me, since the house and student loans both were inarguably good extensions of credit and debt for me.
I read today I believe it was that the average sticker prices on new cars in the US just hit over $30k for the first time ever. The real sales price average is $26k. How sad that the average CC debt of a houshold is $8k, the median household assets in a house where at least one worker is ~55 is a pathetic $50k, and people are buying cars for $26k. I can continue. 60% of workers, when changing jobs, cash out their 401k. Most people will suffer a decrease in quality of life when they retire. Bankruptcies in the country are increasing.
My god, it's like the average adult is an irresponsible child, totally unable to control their greed and impulses. I lament.
