Costa why are we always in debt? That was my wife’s passing thought before falling asleep last night. So, while she snored, I was left with the question rolling around in my head.

I woke this morning, red eyed and drowsey, with what I was a life changing vision. Life is shit. Yes, that was my world changing answer to the state of my life. Life is shit.

Why is Costa in this state I hear you ask, well you would if anyone read this blog. Well, Costa is in this position because, Costa has a low paid, crap job, and Costa has a wife that spends more than he earns. Costa also has four children that think the financial meltdown does not affect the bank of Costa.

I am like a dung beetle, running around on my ball of crap all day, afraid to stop in case I fall off, and never able to get the smell of shit out off my nostrils.

The funny thing, or not so funny thing depending how you look at it, is there are thousands of dung beetles out there, all trying to stop their balls of dung running out of control.

If you are one of them, lets make a promise for the New Year. Repeat after me. “I will not make anyone else’s dung ball bigger than it already is, and if I can I will try to give others a helping push.”

All The Best

Costa
