Day 67 - Our First Recruit!

My cousin, Dustin, has been really supportive of our spending ban experiment, and this week has started his own spending ban! We're so proud! Not that I don't realize our economy is sort of based on us spending money on totally frivolous stuff, but I do think our economy would be better long term if we bought few things but those things were not cheap things produced in China. Then people could be paid a fair wage for what they actually made and we would end up with better stuff. Granted, I am not an economist, but I met with a company today that I tried to sell a phone system to last year, and to save money they bought a cheaper system. I met with them again today because the support on that cheap system is nonexistent. I think it can still be generally said that you get what you pay for.
