You spend your life working for "the man" thinking that you'll have a retirement, that you will be able to sit back, relax and sip the mojitos. But just as your daydream starts to get really good, someone hands you a package called "Preparing for a Financial Setback" and all of a sudden, you realize that retirement may never happen. Especially when the aforementioned package includes a booklet called "101 ways to not spend money" which has prize little gemlets like this in it:
Excerpt: Bankrupt Northwest Airlines Corp. advised workers to fish in the trash for things they like or take their dates for a walk in the woods in a move to help workers facing the ax to save money.
Priceless.
