While it is VERY true that luck and timing plays a big role in financial security...but even those with meager incomes can pay down debt & create wealth with strict financial discipline.

On Friday I was talking with the head line guy at a small airport in southern Cali. We were trying to figure out where my hotel was and it had been a while since I have seen him. When we were catching up he was telling me about the recent financial hardship, hours being cut etc.
Then he busts out the iPhone and uses his map application to find my hotel. Work pays for my phone and I got the "free" phone for about 15 bucks taxes fees etc.
There is no way I could afford an iPhone. I guess this guy is sacrificing it all to have an iPhone?
