It's like S&S said... my parents brought me up to believe that experiences are worth more. Sure, we may all drive old clunky cars and not have a lot of material things. But if you give up eating out once a week or those new shoes or something like that, the money adds up. I know people who have saved their pocket change for two years and have been able to afford nice vacations. If you want to do it badly enough, you'll find a way.

My friend bought a Picasso. He was really bragging about how cultured he was. His parents pay for his school and he borrowed some money from them to buy it. He can't believe everyone doesn't own their own Picasso.
