on here we teach eachother about guitars, amps, and pedals almost every day. we share our experiences on music and the related.
we even help pick eachother up when we are down.
everybody knows the economy is at a standstill, i dont think it makes much difference where we live either. they tell us everything is on the
rise but we dont see it do we ? well not most of us anyways.
heres a great opportunity to share ideas as to what your doing to cut back, save some cash, cut your utility bills, cut the costs of food expences, or whatever. ok guys and gals, what are you doing to cut back?

never let your nutrition suffer.
easier said than done i know. you find it cheaper to eat at home rather
than eating out? down in these parts i believe its a 50/50 on that.

way cool jr, I don't have many ideas about how but I try real hard, sometimes I think about life's ups and downs. this song is kind of the anthem for the rollercoaster:

I truly wonder how you can do that, Nevin. I've always been wiping with Franklins; Hamilton just can't get the job done. If times are tough though, I just cut back on the number of wipes.

Heres what were all suppose to do...

Take home pay
- 10% for you
=net for all expenses

Pay yourself first.. and live with the rest. If your net isn't paying..thats when you have to make changes, but whatever it is, PAY YOURSELF FIRST

My opinion only YMMV

If I shared my ideas about fiscal management there'd be more gear junkies in a better position to take advantage of the falling prices of vintage amps, which means more buyers that I have to compete with.

And that ain't gonna happen, pal......I want 'em all!

"But how many amps do you need, dear?"

"Just one more, honey."

:mrgreen:
