A strange phenomenom with Income and Expenses

Blog quote #1140... 
"Expenditure rushes to meet income." -Cyril Northcote Parkinson-    

Isn't that something that no matter how much money one makes, the expenses seem to keep pace? Why is that?  

Make more equals a license to spend more? What's wrong with a little savings?  Great observation here by Cyril.  Hmm... 

That's my view...what say you?
