Mrs. Eastwood & Company is a very interesting show...I just started watching it today. I really like Clint Eastwood, & I like his wife, Dina Eastwood.
The daughters...not so much.
Their show makes them come across as whiny little brats who think they're entitled to any & everything. In the current episode his daughter Francesca has a $100,000 bag that her photographer boyfriend gave her to DESTROY for a photoshoot. She wanted to keep it so he's letting her carry it around until they destroy it at the photoshoot.
Excuse me, BUT WHAT THE FUCK?!
Dina seems to understand. She keeps telling her how much that bag is worth could feed all of Monteray county, build 4 schools in Africa, how it's double the salary that her father makes as a school teacher in a year, it's like a "F-U" to society, etc. She tries taking them shopping at ROSS to show them all the different bags there that cost 1/100 of what the mildly cute bag she's been carrying around costs.
People like me, love ROSS...good call Dina!
I sometimes envy people who can afford things like that...sometimes.
Chase & I live pretty frugally for the most part. The things we spend our extra money on are things that we've wanted for a while, or on dates we take each other on like a nice dinner, the movies, Sounders games, drinks downtown... If I had that kind of money, I would make sure I had enough money to pay my bills & my family's. Pay off my parents debt, make sure I don't get into any debt, take one nice vacation per year & start a college fund for my 15, 13, & 12 year old siblings. That kind of stuff.
Oh great. Now they're destroying the $100,000 bag with a chainsaw...AND LIGHTING IT ON FIRE!! WOW, it's actually a good photo :-/ Take that, society. Americans would rather destroy $$ than sell that bag & give the money to someone who needs it. Rockin.
Now "Kendra" is on...I LOVE HER!!! Now there's a frugal, fun gal :-)
