No matter how much he makes, it all goes for nothing. He can never take advantige of opportunities that come his way, be- cause opportunity has to be backed by a bank account. If he gets sick or loses his job, he bcomes a burden on other people, and in his old age he is dependent on the charity of others. He has got ‘nothing to show for his life's work just because he has never learned to save when he was young. The wickedest woman on earth is no more of a curse to her husband than is the good woman who is wasteful and extravagant. No man can make headway against a wife with a spending mania.
