Why is money not making itself evident!?!?!

Money, we all need it in order to live, to buy food+water, to heat our homes, clothes etc. Since the authors of this blog haven't really reached the stage of paying mortgages and paying for the weekly shop, what on earth do we spend so much money on that their isn't any left? In this rant I want it to make it clear that things need to be cheaper!!!! Below are a couple of ideas to get you started...

1. Females
A problem for guys (at least the heterosexual ones anyway), females (as in girlfriends) are very...very expensive (£lots), taking them out to dinner (£££), buying presents (£££) for Christmas (and her hopefully not forgotten birthday(££££££££££££££)) add up to a monumental sum (£INFINITY)that for guys, at least those without a part time job, find it a struggle to pay up.

2. Clothes
OK seriously, why on earth would someone spend 50 quid on a Abercrombie and Finch/Hollister Hoodie?!?!? What type of uncomprehendible delorted evil spirit possesses people to go and spend 10 hours of average teen wage on a piece of clothing that says "Hollister" on it??? Sure, its a brand to have, but its probley made in Hinagiyiastan or somewhere for 50p by using child labour etc.

3. Driving
Let me give you a list of all the expenses associated with driving(mainly cars, but motorbikes aswell):

• Paying for the car
• Paying for VAT on the car
• Paying for having the car washed once in a while
• Paying for VAT on the carwash
• Paying for the MOT (and any costs incurred by getting it up to standard)
• Paying for VAT on the MOT and any parts needed
• Paying for Insurance
• Paying for VAT on the insurance
• Paying for driving lessons
• Paying for VAT on the driving lessons
• Paying for fuel
• Paying for VAT on the fuel
• Paying for fuel duty TAX (a MASSIVE 65p per litre(£££££), the govn. make probley at least 10 times more money off fuel than the oil companies do! (cause the oil companies sell it on for say 40p per litre, and they have bills to pay(such as transporting the petrol half way round the world to a garage and paying VAT)
• Paying for VAT on the fuel duty TAX
• Paying for congestion TAX if you live in London etc.

and then obviously the crashs where your insurance will probely go up by about four or five times depending on the degree of the crash...

4. Gadgets
We (or at least some of us) will spend money on gadgets like Iphones (Apple sold a total of over 22,000,000 types of ipod in the first three months of 2009, they made billions upon billions!)and music.

5. Going out with friends
Going to the cinema (seeing rubbish films like Twilight), restaurants, daytrip to Portrush/Dublin, Bowling, Ice Skating and the like...

I'm not sure about you, but I need more, much more money!!!
