Is it me or do I always hear older people talking about how the world of today or the people of today will never make it. My grandparents always say that they ahd to work hard at age 8 just to buy shoes and stuff but kids today spend money like it is nothing. For a afct, i believe that. I'm actually one of those kids. Money does not last with me for more then 2 weeks. i can spend 150$ in one day at the mall with friends. Also wars today are not a rare thing. A war starting today or tomorrow is a common site in the last 30-40 years. The economy is growing at a fast rate that many people can't keep up with high prices. I think that many people in the future will end up going broke and bankruptsy will be a much to common site. what do you think. Do you think that the world anf people of today are bringin doom upon themselves. I vote maybe. It kinda goes either way on this one.

Maybe because this is life. It can go both ways because you decide your fate. Money doesn't really last very long with alot of kids, but with others, they have to conserve their money. We've had a war with Iraq since 2001 and it's nothing new. Back in the past, there were lots of wars like the American Revolution, Civil War, both World Wars... I can sit here all night ranting about it, but I'll shorten it by saying this:

It's life. Deal with it. It's your f-ing choice if you wanna bring your life to doom and I'm not gonna care when you're 18 and go kill your @ss in a car accsident because you were drunk. It wasn't my fault you wanted to be a moron. Go ahead and do what you want, it's not my life you're doing it to. It's your life, your decision, your whatever...

a little off topic but we have only tecnicaaly started war with iraq in march 2003 we started with afghanistan in late 2001. anyways I think that new bills might be made in the future like a 500$ bill just like the euro has. Prices are just going to keep going up and I still don't think that I will be able to keep up in about 7 years when im leaving regular college to pursue dreams. All of this tends to make people think about their finances in a way

@Marc31: Ah, yeah.. I meant to say 2003, but was thinking of the Twin Towers instead.

Anywho, about the finances thing. A job, is what gives you money. Of course, you can go for a stock in the stock markets and get money for it. Because, normally, everyday stocks can go up or down, depending on how the buisness is doing. Of course, the stock can go broke, which could put you into debt (not exactly sure as I haven't learned this yet, but I am learning about stocks).

Now, I do like that $500.00 bill idea. We wouldn't have to carry as much $100.00.

hmm

intresting topic

id say that we are contributing to our own demise

but when the world does cease to exist , it will be natural

i beleieve the whole another big bang theory because its happened before , so it an happen again

but imagine if a world war broke out

there would be many a nuclear winter if it did

would it be possible to destroy the earth ?, it would take alot of war to destroy it
