April Fools and Their Money…
April 1, 2008 | Author Dr Agon Fly
“After all, tomorrow is another day!” Gone With the Wind, 1939
For some folks, every day is April Fools Day.
Don and Mary went to the auto show intending to learn about hybrid cars and SUV’s. They planned to buy a vehicle when the new 2009 model year created the opportunity to buy a low mileage 2008. They hoped that would help them keep their budget for both payments and fuel under control.
They left the auto show with a gas guzzling 2008 luxury SUV that they bought on a whim because it was being sold for less than the dealer’s cost. They thought that they could figure it all out in the days ahead; after all, tomorrow…
Every day American’s are overwhelmed with “opportunities” to buy the latest and greatest products – everything from the miracle sponge being hawked in the 60 second infomercial to the house with the price reduced to $1,000,000. Every day some American’s are fooled by the cacophony of claims in consumer products advertising and the oft repeated but rarely accurate promises of financial success chanted by Wall Street’s merchants of misinformation.
Over 250 years ago- almost 100,000 tomorrows - Benjamin Franklin said “Many a man thinks he is buying pleasure, when he is really selling himself to it.” Every day creates new April fools of people who believe they can buy their way to wealth and well being.
Don’t let it happen to you. Learn how to manage the money that flows through your life. Don and Mary woke up the tomorrow after their folly, exercised their right of recision on the purchase of the SUV and breathed a sigh of relief. “After all, tomorrow is another day!” doesn’t have to be a fatalistic mantra. It can also mean that you can change your mind about money matters and change your behavior in positive ways.
