This George Clooney DnB NOR television spot does a great job of dreaming big, but not being entirely realistic. As the ad states, "some people are lucky in life" (like the girl who got drunk and then just so happened to discovered that she tied the know with Mr. Clooney).
After all of the hilarity unravels of the woman who discovered all of her dreams have come true (giant wedding ring and all), the commercial then allows reality to swoop in stating, "For the rest of us, saving up can be smart."
The George Clooney DnB NOR commercial illustrates that our wildest dreams can come true, but planning and being cautious of your finances is in your best interest. While saving may not seem as fun as marrying a celebrity heartthrob, being credit crunched isn't much fun either.
