Why does this drive you crazy?4. People who go on three holidays a year, buy new car every year and on same salary as yourself.
6. Airlines who advertise New York for 99 euro one way and 400 for a return ticket.
9. Hairdressers because of the prices they charge.
10. Creches because of the prices they charge.
7. Those annoying phone calls I keep getting from phone companies trying to change my phone provider.

2. Credit Cards. I hate them but I know they are a necessary evil.
5. Scratch cards because I have never known anyone who has won big money.
1. Wires and cables. Why can't wireless be more available for the likes of televisions etc.
3. Solicitors. They never phone back when they say they will.
8. Junk mail.
People who can turn on fog lights in all kinds of weather but cannot switch on indicator at round-about.
To be fair that is not what was said.If you think they are a rip off and making excessive profits
Yes - I agree.Does this reflect better financial management by these people, a more savvy approach to using financial instraments to utilise their income... or just your inherant jealousy? BTW: How can you know what other sources of income a person may have - they could be putting in more overtime, investing wisely or doing nixers in the evenings.
Yes - I know lots of people who survive happily without a credit card. I even know many who survive happily without a bank account.Credit Cards are not a necessary evil - get a laser card, consolidate your debts with a cheap CC loan or whatever instrament you wish and lead a life without a credit card. Simple.

Have I forgotton anything?
Our ex-Minister for Finance for one....
If only. NTL appears to put you on a "Call frequently - might change mind!" list.Ring your telecom provider. Ask to be put on the coldcall 'opt out' list. Problem sorted.
Though there's nothing wrong with credit cards, as a user, provided you sensibly pay them off in full every month, and don't treat the credit limit as a target.
I concur, used wisely the credit card is an excellent tool in budgeting and managing cashflow....
3. People who ask me what my star sign is. I usually tell them i'm skeptical about such things, like most Aquarians.
So if they advertised flights for 400 one way and 800 the round trip you'd be happy cause they are straight with you? If you can get one leg for 99 euro - then be very happy and take arm and all! Low flight prices are allocated according to low levels of demand - if you want them... you've got to be flexible. Price marketing tactics like this are used in every industry.

(BTW: Sorry to belittle your pet hates... but I love taking the opposite argument in a debate like this! Don't let things like those you outlined get to you! Take life a bit less seriously. Go see a comedian! Then take a weekend break. Lifes too short to let things annoy you!)
what about people who nitpick everything you say?
