Peter Jennings Drove A Used Car?
Posted on 01/31/2007 07:22 AM | Link | Post Comment
I was sad to see the passing of fellow Canadian Peter Jennings, this past week from Lung Cancer (another really good reason to keep your money and NOT smoke). (rant begin)Speaking of rude smokers last night at a Little League baseball game a young lady lit up in front of us, we asked her to please put it out, and her comment was, "I'm outside!", like my lungs somehow might not be irritated by her smoke because of this? (rant over)
The accolades and stories for Mr. Jennings were neat to see, but it was interesting to see that he never bought a NEW car in his life (he always bought a used one). What does this show, no matter how much money you make (and I believe Mr. Jennings made a nice pay packet) being FRUGAL is a lifestyle and not something to forget about once you get comfortable. Just because you can afford to buy a BMW, doesn't mean you HAVE to buy a BMW, does it?
How much money is enough by the way? I think that may be my next spiritual question to be wrestled with, since I have found that no matter how much money I have, I could always use a little (or a lot) more.
