When I say that, I mean people who don’t buy out of impulse and people who don’t immediately spend all of the money they earn. People who understand money better.
Because when people go into debt and spend more money than they have, the economy benefits. But when they save money and spend it wisely, the economy suffers. When you’re doing what’s best for you, you’re doing what’s worst for the economy.
You wonder why schools don’t teach finances nearly as much as they should?
