LMFA & ROFL @ 1000$ Life savings (in the US that is.... ).... if you suck that bad at life, gamboling is the least of your worries !!!!


[/ QUOTE ]

The majority of Americans don't have this much in savings...they are in fact deeply in credit card debt.

You are wrong, in fact, wildly so.

The average American has >$1k in savings.

I beleive in fact the first time in US history the average American was in debt, hopefully someone will clarify. Possibly a misleading statistic.

Even if the "average" American had more than 1k in their savings account, I'm sure it's misleading. I would guess that the fact that Gates and other billionaires are sitting on a fat stack offsets the many "average" Americans who are thousands in debt.
