I just came in from lunch. On the radio they were interviewing folks in line for the new Apple iPhone 4 -- the interviewer was questioning a guy why he was purchasing a new iPhone when the one in his hand (iPhone 3?) was perfectly fine.
He said, "I want a new one -- I've always gotten a new one."
A new iPhone costs $300.00. By his own admittance, it was completely unnecessary for this individual to purchase it.
But that is the attitude prevailent amongst consumers today. And our economic future rests on the shoulders of these individuals. Scary.
-Z-man.
