Well I think there is some truth to the younger you are the more likely you are to think you'll be debt free faster. When I was 25 I was debt free. Now that I'm married with a kid, and ruined by the recession. I think I'll be in debt till the day I get to take my dirt nap.

Than again, isn't that the objective...why die with money in the bank, BORING!!!

Either way I plan to continue giving fear mongers a reason to warn Canadians about our terrible spending habits, and that we shouldn't buy anything except stocks, and even than make sure we can stuff that much money in a mattress as collateral in case the stock goes down in value.
