Obviously you must be a wealthy doctor or lawyer to be able to afford
LED bulbs. Either that, or you used your life savings to buy them,
and will have no savings left for retirement.
Most of us cant afford them.

I get the biggest laugh out of the advertising for all these
alternative bulbs. Or should I not laugh and state their outright
lies. They say you will save all kinds of money on your electric
bills. Sure, you will save a few bucks, but you'll be spending 100%
to 50,000% more on lightbulbs. Those CFL bulbs are a minimum of $3
each, often more, compared to 25 cents for an incandescent. And dont
let them fool you, they dont last any longer, in fact most of the ones
I've used lasted less hours than the old standard bulbs.

You're not saving anything in the end.....
More likely spending MORE, often MUCH MORE.....
