Bob, I would say that is the norm, not a system that is imposed. If a
young man works, saves, and buys a cheap vehicle, if he keeps his
zipper zipped, if he chooses a wife carefully, then they will have a
paid-for car and a very modest house with very modest payments before
they have children.

from how much you spend, and on what.
