Sure, let's ignore the economics, let’s always live for our short term happiness. Why worry about or plan for long term debt, or saving for a house, or paying for our kids college, or divorce, or child support, or layoffs, or medical bills, or retirement? Things will always work out, won’t they? And when I’m 60, divorced, living in a rental unit, unable to go anywhere decent on vacation, unable to retire from my job as a social worker, disillusioned by the “great unwashed masses” I have to work with, I’ll just close my eyes and think about those good old times I had at Chapman and it will all be worth it. Yeah, sure!
