Smokin,
Simple logic and common sense which you seem to lack.
Example: I make 100K per year for the past 20 years. For the past 20 years I spend 160K per year. The result is a simple debt of $1,200.000. How will this debt ever be paid.
If you spend more than you make, than it doesn't matter how much you make, you are going backwards, thus my earlier comment to which you called B.S.
Not gloom and doom just something that needs serious attention, immediately.
