tattypatty, how old are those girls though? Are they just out of high school and never really had to pay bills before and now are completely lost while on their own? Why don't their handlers advice them to open a checking account and put so much away every week for utilities, rent, insurance, and savings? Or am I that naive to think that part of their handler's job is to advice them in such things?
Silly snatch, home economics isn't just for kids.
I've seen far more 40 year old's who don't know what to do with the $60k per year they make than PW's who make 3x that and can't budget properly.
Fuck, my budget is already set for 2009, and that's based purely on my guaranteed income (no OT, extras, etc.). If more people did that, including teen PW's or 40y/o financial fuckups, the world would be a better place.

Didn't they also have jobs while in school? I don't understand how someone can buy $300 boots withut thinking that money would be better spent on rent.
Yeah, that's wonderful. But if you're never paid rent, or stayed in less-than-desirable living conditions - you always want bigger & better. The problem here is that PW's see 'big money', and they want it (material luxury BS)...NOW!! If it has to wait, they'll be old & wrinkly, and no one will care that they're driving a new 2008 $45k sedan.
