LIFESTYLE MYTHS

Day by day our society becomes more and more isolated and devoid of true lifestyle. We need places such as Living Social, Trip Advisor and Angie's List to hold our hands and guide our paths on what should be no more than normal living matters.

We need the guarantee that total strangers give us about our needs and desires. In short, these places are telling us that we are too stupid to make choices. Granted, mistakes will be made, but they will be made with these services too, but it becomes easier to say "They gave me the wrong information".

Stop it...!!!   We don't need anyone's protection for what our lives require. In future issues I will be breaking down all these services one by one and show the fans that life does go on without them.  Go ahead and if a mistake happens, fix it without having to blame someone else for it.

Contrary to beliefs, we as consumers are NOT always right; and yes, we do need the services of those professionals better equipped to do some of the stuff we feel to be experts at only because we read a website.

You want a vacation, forget this crap that Trip Advisor is dishing out, trust a professional travel agent to give you the right expertise. You want to invest, ask a professional investment broker for facts and figures. The Internet is only there for information, not to make you a broker over night. You want to know what it feels to go to a swanky place for dinner, save up for it and pay like the swanky people do. Living Social only points out that you need to go at discount, or better to not think of having such experiences; and most of all, please!!!!  I beg you...   Don't "Love Angie". You don't know who this broad is or what her angle is all about. If anything at all, let Angie love you. After all, it's your dues that is making her a rich woman for dishing the same stuff available from the local yellow pages. You need repairs, ask the local hardware or home improvement place. They'll give you great information for free.

Get real, okay...??   Stop hoping for the perfect moment about everything that is needed. It does not exist...

Remember, there is reality away from the mighty computer. You don't need to live attached to your iPhone, iPad or any other gadget. Attach yourselves to other humans and live the Real Lifestyle...
