Fantasy shopper

[louisiana]

I have just seen my Amazon shopping basket is up to 231 items. This is crazy.

Does anyone else have a similar personal problem?

I'm not quite that bad, but I do have long (and different) wish lists at both Amazon UK and Amazon US. Since I'm (apparently) difficult to buy presents for, it helps family and friends but I do make a point of saying that they don't have to actually buy the items through Amazon.

I also have long "wants lists" with eBay, GEMM, Musicstack and other smaller record dealers' websites.

Yes

It is crazy and a sign that you are infected with "Affluenza" - the need to keep up with the Jones which ultimatly makes us twice as prone to depression, Anxiety and addition then people in developing nations.....

Personally I would recommend reading Affluenza by Oliver Jame (ISBN : 9780091900113) - currently available at Amazon (Doh - 232 items !!!) (6)

Nah, LuvPeckham - it's already on the list!

Hmm... but what about his follow up book - The Selfish Capitalist.

"The Selfish Capitalist" provides more detailed substantiation for the claims made in "Affluenza". It looks deeper into the origins of the virus and outlines the political, economic and social climate in which it has grown.A modern-day "The State We're In"

Selfish Capitalist at Amazon

:-S

(sadly I also have bought both of these books from Amazon before realising the irony of buying them in the first place !!)

That'll be a hardback, I presume. Hope the binding's strong enough for the job.
