How much should I save?

1 Jan 1941

186 Uncle: Tell me, Jim, what do you do with all this extra money you're earning? Jim: Spend some of it, of course, and I've doubled my saving. It's now ten bob a week. Uncle: But that still leaves you with a clear fifty shillings — far too much to spend. You ought to save a lot more. Jim: Why should I? Uncle: Well, my boy, when you spend this extra money you keep men working on jobs which don't matter, so that you can buy things which are really quite un- necessary. That's not going to help us win the war, you know.
