Last week, I went to the local salon to get my eyebrows shaped. As Kathy, my eyebrow lady, was warming up the wax, she vented about money. She said that the salon is totally dead this year, because Hanukkah came early and Thanksgiving came late. She said that economy never recovered, and people have stopped spending money on themselves. Women aren’t coming into the salon during the week, because everybody is working. She said that her husband is also not bringing in much money. He’s the manager of a high-end car dealership and works on commission. Nobody is buying cars either. She said that she and her husband were barely paying their bills this year.
I don’t need to read books by economists, when I have people like Kathy giving me all the dirt.
