Is today the day of romance or the day of the wallet killer? This is one of the most common holiday event that people tell me is more like a money grubber of some sort to get you to buy things. I must admit too, this is one of those holidays that I never really fully understood on how it started as I guess in elementary school they train you to do things like exchange cards with others that day.
But thanks to the Internet that makes researching pretty easy. I just quickly did a search and found this interesting video that talks about the history of Valentine’s Day. The beginning isn’t exactly the most romantic thing just to warn you ahead of time.
I guess the lesson in the end too is that you don’t need to spend a whack of money to show your love to another.
