I came across this article on fool.com that starts off with P. Diddy flying commercial because the fuel for his jet is getting too expensive.

“[R]ight now, can you believe it, I am actually flying commercial,” he explained. “That’s how high gas prices are, OK? So I feel you.” Then came the solution, as Combs pleaded, “I want to give a shout out to all my Saudi Arabian brothers and sisters and all my brothers and sisters from all the countries that have oil, if you could all please send me some oil for my jet, I would truly appreciate it.”

Yep, that’s what he said. I wonder how much money he has in the bank. Anyways, the article goes on to talk about it’s not so much about the price of oil, but more about our spending habits, and how we look to buy material things. This country is probably the biggest consumer of products in the world. The problem is, we’re greedy for things. Big houses, big cars, big everything. “I have a friend who has a 42 inch tv, now I want the 46 inch tv.” I think we’re all guilty of this, including myself. When I go to someone’s house and see an HDTV I usually ask what size is it, and does it do 1080P. Yeah, it’s pretty bad, but it’s so ingrained in our society it’s ridiculous. Foruntely I still drive a crappy car so I don’t have a monthly payment touring the town.

Ok, that’s all I wanted to rant about. Save that money!
