"It seems like all the money goes away so quickly," she said. "It's kind of scary."
"Cable used to be a luxury. Now it's expected," she said. "People have an expectation that they should have a mobile phone, you should be able to have the Internet. People are going to have to change their outlook and put things into perspective."
Different "she" quoting, but the first can't seem to determine where the money goes, but the second has a pretty good idea (not just the things cited, but the "expectations." Just a quick example. We had a young girl stay with us for a month because her mom and dad couldn't afford a place to live (car accident, lost job, etc.), but she sure was able to have unlimited talk and text (and some data) on her smartphone. I just don't understand what drives us that way???
