People have a right to spend their hard earned money on whatever it is that they want to buy because it is THEIR money. What I always find interesting is HOW people spend their money.
SuperBowl Sunday events? Yup the sky is the limit.
Tickets at the Times Union Center for their favorite band? Yup
Leasing a BMW 535? For Sure
Mrs. London's pastries...Without a doubt. A small 8 inch cake (my estimate) is $38.00. But if you WANT that fabulous cake, you will buy it.
Joshua D. did a great review of Mrs. London's and confirmed just what I said above...I want it. It tastes good. I have to have it.
When it comes to necessities, many people's FIRST response is, "That cost too much" or just as common, " He charges too much." People will not pay for things they don't want (to pay for) or don't value. A relatively small group of American's truly value their teeth and great American dentistry. We might not want to pay for dentistry but we know that we must.
Just something to think about.
