There are portions of specific ethnic populations that don't know if they will live past next week, let alone til retirement. Showy rims seem to come from that population, as an expression of "Don't mess with me"-ness. I think I was being a little too subtle.

They SHOULD care about their finances. They SHOULD feel good about themselves for making smart decisions, not stupid ones. I understand it, it's just sad. It is the whole "Big Hat No Cattle" syndrome. I would say anybody that needs a big set of spinner wheels to feel good about themselves really needs to take a deep look at their inner self.

Reminds me of 1 John 2:15 "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him."

"HOW" is much more effective. We live in the good old U.S.A...where our inside worth tends to be a reflection of what we believe we aquire on the outside. That turth is seeped into every aspect of our beings at every given moment in evry concievable way. “Why” becomes such an open ended question back to itself… “HOW” is much more effective.
