I saw a video completely unrelated to food where a guy buys wee jars of jam for 6 dollars or something maybe more.
I thought what the devil that stuff it over the top expensive.
Then it dawned on me it was hand made by the girls that sold it, it was in Portland and it was at a market booth place thing.
(((People are willing to pay more for this sort of thing.)))
But is that really true?
Or is that what stuff really costs and the other stuff is at such a lower cost we have forgotten what the real cost of stuff is.
Many of us can make fun of hipsters, millennials and young folks all we want but we would be cutting our own throats to do so.
It took one to open my eyes when he told me I have so much to offer them and Austin in so many ways.
These people are just as sick of a broken system as we are.
Such as all these food poisoning outbreaks and fake food.
They want hand made quality that is hard to find and they are willing to pay for it.
As opposed to many in my generation that said so many times, "Why would I pay that much for something when I can get it at Walmart for way less."
I have fought that mentality for years to no avail.
Now I dont have to anymore if I choose.
And yes by darn I still have and use that book case I made my wife 35 or so years ago for her birthday.
It has been moved I dont know how many times and as good as new.
Say that about some piece of crap out of Walmart 35 years from now.
So in reality this young folks are a blessing for me around here not a curse.
I cant count how many have told me, 'I wish I knew how to do that.
