MA – i don’t know if you realize how offensive your words are. Besides the fact that it is ridiculous to talk about your childhood experiences years ago and compare them to now when the world has changed drastically, what kind of business do you have to make such a comment?! You cannot possibly be responding to my post because i said we bought a car for our daughter to get to SCHOOL, not work. But we didn’t buy the car for our daughter, it was for us to use to make sure she had a way to work as the other kids needed rides during those times.
How unrealistic for you to think a person having a job can afford a car, gas and insurance. What kind of job do you think this 19, 20, 21 year old is holding? And to say it with such confidence without knowing anything about a persons situation.
You like to talk about all the things us little people need to do to bring moshiach but you seem, somehow, to be missing some of those little tiny things called sensitivity and anava that are actually MUCH MORE CRITICAL. So am i being insensitive? Sure, call it what you wish. I would like to think i am defending the pride of those people who may have been hurt by your flippancy and misplaced confidence. And I am doing you a HUGE favor because as a (to quote you)financial manager who is also a psychologist, it can only be very beneficial for you to know how people actually live and feel.
No need to thank me for this free lesson. I am a self proclaimed life coach or something. Right Joe?
