Actually
I rather like woolton pie... The fact is that, whilst I have a nice place, nice car, big tv and suchlike, my wife and I only owe for our university time, we buy fresh food and make our own meals and packed lunches. Other than our honeymoon, we haven't taken an expensive holiday - we take time off and go for picnics or visit national trust houses at weekends to get a break. I don't borrow money I can't afford and I don't buy things I can't afford.

People who blame consumerism or pressure to keep up with the jonses are talking through their arse an refusing to take responsibility for their actions. I'd love a Ferrari, but I don't have one as I can't afford it. By their reckoning, I should get one on credit and then blame Top Gear for making me want one...
