As far as girls who get everything they want - Well, there are a lot of them these days, but just remember - you may be able to get everything you want for a short while, but it will catch up with you. You can only live beyond your means so long, before debt hits back - and it hits back hard. Experiencing debt's "counterpunch" is what helped me - hopefully, you can learn from my and other people's mistakes!! @Rose

Once it's squirreled away in its ING account, it's out of sight, out of mind.

We can't get ABC but watch it on the Internet. We even went for awhile this summer with the TV unplugged and just plugged it in to watch DVDs. I'm actually going to go do that again since the writer's strike has my shows off!

David Bach presents his material in a very engaging, easy-to-read style. I recommend this book to all you ChristianPF readers. :) The Automatic Millionaire is a fantastic book.
