>It's a funny way to represent it, but there is one person missing from that cartoon. The person that refuses to go into debt, saves until they have the money to spend on whatever it is they want to buy. There's another person missing from that picture - a person who has debt and has positive net worth. Honestly debt is not a boogeyman, it can be very enabling and given the current economic situation, interest rates and economic outlook people saving are going to end up on the losing side in the long run.
