2 years ago, I've bought emergency suplies for my grandmother. I told her many times, she should keep them in case, shit hit the fan...

She ate them in 2 weeks.

@LukeAlmighty Singapore does it right. They FORCE people to save for their medical costs and retirement, and prevent them from touching the money except for those specific instances.

IF you give people free money, they'll buy Gucci bags and monkey JPEGs.

Paternalistic? Yes. However, you can't argue with the results. youtube.com/watch?v=sKjHvpiHk3
