The Road to $40 Trillion

Money was tight in our early married years. We bought a house we couldn’t afford, purchased a car we couldn’t afford and had all the expenses attendant on the raising of two young boys. However, as we wandered the local mall gazing at all the other things we couldn’t afford, we were always willing to stop into Godiva to get chocolate squares. Godiva was, of course, more expensive than Hershey bars. But no one was going to go broke buying chocolate squares – it just wasn’t a big enough item to feature in our budgetary woes.
