Self Esteem
I know you think you’ll feel better if you buy a new shirt, buy a new blouse or go get your hair done because you’re feeling down a bit; life’s gotten to you. But, the truth is, if you have $500 in your savings account, then you’ve got self-esteem, because that’s the one thing you have control over. Buying a huge mountain of stuff, and then enslaving yourself to payments for it, and putting all of your relationships and everything at risk, is not a good formula.
— Arkadi Kuhlman, ING Direct CEO, in ABC News Interview
