Doesn't surprise me at all. I can remember when having a credit card was a rare thing. No one I knew owned a new car, extravagant house or took vacations to Disneyland or things like that. Entertainment was a TV or maybe a movie on Saturday night. Loans were not cheap, borrowed money was a monkey on your back. Now it's new this, new that, borrow, borrow, borrow.
