![]() ![]() ![]() In college I worked part time in the dining hall in order to make a couple of bucks to support my projects and activities. ToolGuyd exists because for years I needed tools to support various activities, and didn’t have the money to buy premium tools, or to buy things twice. Maybe you didn’t know I have a PhD, or maybe you did and that was a personal shot.Įither way, you seem to have some misconceptions about PhDs. ![]() And just because I have advanced degrees doesn’t mean “richness” or freedom from hard work. Let me tell you – a Masters degree or PhD doesn’t equate to “being rich” or a “cushy six figure salary.” I take great offense to this comment, as it implies I didn’t work hard to earn my doctorate, or that I don’t work hard.ĭo you really think that working towards higher degrees comes from privilege, a rich lifestyle, or money? My degrees came from years of hard work. I am very far from being rich and I don’t have a cushy six figure salary with a Master’s/PHD either. Not just old stock, but new items as well. Problem is, I am just one person and in a minority of people that actually care about country of origin and are willing to seek out American made items. I vote with my wallet and write to proper channels to voice my opinion as well. Unemployment is a serious issue in America and the continuous outsourcing of American jobs is a giant problem. However, compared to the Pocket Monkey, I still wouldn’t likely be that interested in the Wallet Ninja. If this Wallet Ninja was also American made,I’d still say I wouldn’t try putting this past TSA, but I would praise the company for manufacturing the tool in USA. I’ve been there before and unless has experienced the same situation, chances are this is hard to understand where I am coming from. Some of friends lived paycheck to paycheck and barely had enough money to eat. I’ve had several buddies and family members lose their jobs due to outsourcing and some of people were war veterans and close to retiring. However, not everyone is fortunate enough to a comfortable lifestyle where money is not that big of a deal. I own up and take responsibility that I do tend to appreciate American made products far more than imported products. ![]()
