    The real dopamine comes when you have zero debt AND you have enough savings to handle any emergency. This Memorial Day weekend my water heater sprung a leak. I called a plumber immediately and they'll be out at my house next Thursday to replace the water heater. I have the money in the bank to pay for this big house repair. It feels so good not to be throwing the repair on a credit card. Priceless!

      @@traceycancio1795 No. Home Insurance does not cover an older water heater tank that starts leaking. Every old appliance breaks eventually. Maybe a household appliance insurance company might, but I insure myself by saving money rather than paying monthly premiums. I have home owner's insurance for other home calamities like fire or a car driving into your home. Household appliance insurance can be expensive and then you are at their mercy. I'd rather put the $50-$100 monthly premium into my savings account than give it to an insurance company. My neighbor's hot water tank broke over 3 weeks ago and they still don't have hot water. They are going through their home insurance company because floors were ruined. They have a $1,000 deductible they have to pay and they have to wait for the insurance company to approve and schedule the work. They also have to use the company the insurance company approves.

      No, Home Depot does not keep credit card files at the store. You should be able to access your credit card purchases online.

      $1k cards are nothing . Do you think the banks care in the least about that amount? Their goal is to get those in everybody’s pockets. Even if a small percentage fail they make a fortune on the rest that dont. And then they write off the ones that fail . It’s win win for the banks no matter what happens with them.

      We neee people to both save and spend. Savings are investment. Investment creates capital and value. Your money in the bak doesn’t actually just sit there, it’s your neighbor’s mortgage, it’s a business loan for an entrepreneur trying to take a risk to grow something new. Your money in the market is liquidity in markets and cash in business accounts doing the same. It’s how a new technology or process is invented that grows the economy. Your spending money you have is another item to be manufactured.
      Spending makes them go day to day, but saving is how the economy grows over time.
