There have to be other ways of keeping our economy going without over extending ourselves and racking up piles of debt !

Debt has become the norm for making money. That's why the business community labels us "consumers".


Or suckers for the amount of interest we are willing to pay for certain things blush.gif I am curious tho for Muslims living here and credit so easily accessible in such a consumer driven society, are provisions available for "special circumstances" or emergencies with respect to the interest?

America could learn a few lessons in this area. I had read before that mortgages didn't exist in this country until after the war and were created to stimulate the economy, of course. Here we are years later stimulating ! I know there was a legitimate crisis w/ mortgages that was not the consumers fault, but so many of us are in trouble from simply over spending whistling.gif I feel so fortunate right now to not have been sucked into an ARM that I would have defaulted on and be losing my home. I really feel for these people who were the victims of predatory lending rose.gif

Middle East and North AfricaMena meeting S/O
QUOTE (allousa @ Mar 4 2009, 08:48 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hicham and I met while he was going to school here.

We were actually at a mutual friends party. I noticed him on my first trip to the loo. I thought he was SO cute and we kept giving each other the "googlie" eyes. After my forth time of walking past him he reached out, grabbed my hand and said "Hi blue, how ya doin'?" I was wearing a deep blue shirt at the time.

It was truly love at first sight. From that day forward, we have pretty much been together or talked to each other everyday except for when he was stuck in Maroc for 4 years.

When I met his family, I fell in harder for him. Hicham has opened a world to me that I never knew existed. For that alone I am grateful.

But it is our little boy who is now almost three that is the greatest gift of my life. It is our son that makes me think that the people you meet in life aren't just "random".

Totally diggin' the spa idea, but I'm sure that would be pricey.


I have visited a few spas there and they had some nicely priced packages ! I'm sure with "the current economic crisis" there would be more finds. I'm so into relaxation types of mini vacations these days. We do enough cooking, cleaning, running around, etc... in our daily lives whistling.gif
