Eight out of ten women will read this. Of the other two, one is blind and the other one can’t read. Now, on with my counseling for men. There is something you have to know, if you haven’t figured it out, about the female specie. There is something in their DNA that men don’t have. It is powerful force that takes control of them and causes them to cast aside all rhyme and reason. It is SHOPPING!
In cave man days, men hunted and fished to bring meat to the table. This is also where men learned not to talk, for fear of scaring the game or fish. Women would gather fruits and herbs and learned how to talk incessantly to scare off any predators. As mankind evolved into shopping malls, men didn’t like them because there was no place to hunt or fish, but women still think they are gathering and scaring off predators.
My financial controller is a shopper all by herself. When you add my ace number one daughter, you double the adventure. Add two granddaughters and I believe they could bankrupt Warren Buffett in one afternoon.
Upon returning from shopping I often ask my financial controller, "What did you get?" If she says, "Oh, not much," that means less than $200. "Just a few little things" can translate out to real money. And, "This and that," is concern that you may have to sell the house.
If she says, "Everything was on sale."
It’s time to sign up for food stamps.
