Priorities with Money

It is interesting to look at different people in the world, and they way they spend their money. Some people find some things more important than others. Jamie Oliver, in the introduction to Jamie's Dinners said that if he ever suggested going out to a resturant for a night out, people would say they couldn't afford it, but if he suggested a night out drinking, people would find the money. It's all about people's priorities. I personally put a big emphasis on food quality, I don't generally buy Tesco Value food, my policy being it's 3p for a reason. I lower my budget when it comes to clothes; I very rarely spend more than £20 on a top, but to a lot of people, good quality clothes are important and many people are perfectly fine with buying cheap food. The phrase "I can't afford it" is really more a case of "I'd rather spend my money on something else"
