hi. yeah, i agree. lol. it's amusigin to watch how most of the blind commnunity works. even though i myself am blind, i sort of feel like i'm on the outside, looking in. ahaha. also, about the money / saving up thing. not being funny here guys, but lets just put it this way. i am on australias blind pension. i pay for my internet, phone, mobile phone, electricity, and help pay for the cost of our car. pluss food of course. and any other little things that come up. and heres the thing. this year, i have purchasesd, a new iPad mini with retina display, 128 gb cell version. windows 8 toshiba laptop. several games, and heres the topper, i purchased tickets to fly over to england again next year! so yes, saving up can be done. and it really doesn't take that much. just use your money wisely, and you will be fine. lol.
