Spending and Saving: Our Generation

I am definitely a spender, and a major impulse buyer at that. In regards to this article, I agree with the fact that we, people in general, are very poor savers. I'm not quite sure about the shooting up to save cash (even if it's for medical reasons), because I think that if people don't save their money and end up in a bad spot, that's their own fault. Most people aren't completely stupid, and if they are coming to a bad financial position and they know it, they should have enough will power to save a couple bucks. My opinion of our generation is that as a whole, we are uneducated, irresponsible, and impulsive (which really makes things worse for those of us who go beyond these low, pathetic standards). I think people really do need to learn how to gain some responsibility and save money. How else are we supposed to improve our economy? I'm obviously not an expert on this, but I believe that the best thing to do is to save up, for a better, brighter future, and that (almost) any advances in the medical field to help the public in this area are for the better.
