Living for today - Planning for Tomorrow
I’ll tell you. My luck has been GREAT lately. First I managed to take all my investments out of the market before it crashed and sent it to Nigeria in order to receive a huge cash payout. (still pending) and now it turns out my email address has been selected for a 1 million Euro prize. That’s a lot of US dollars!!! Here’s the note:
I was watching a show called "Airline" recently and watched as two passengers were refused entrance on to their flight. They had been drinking too much and were somewhat drunk and belligerent. The younger of the two people started saying he wanted his money back and was directed to the ticket counter to receive it. On the way, he made all kinds of drunken comments
Okay, now this just pisses me off: http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/story?id=5973452&page=1 I hope it’s not true, but I suspect that it is. $440,000 retreat? Incredible.
NCN over at No Credit Needed found a site that calculates the cost to drive your vehicle. Being a car lover like I am, I’m always curious about the price of particular trips. Normally I use the IRS figure to calculate my real cost to drive somewhere. This site seems to just use the gas price. JD at Get Rich Slowly continues his tradition of
I have to confess something. We’ve been running with a dangerously low emergency fund balance for quite some time.

We have finally caught up with everything from construction and are working hard to start building our emergency fund back up. How bad is it? Well, we are currently running
Wow. That’s about all I can say when I watch this video. Boston Gal has a video on her site of a home being "trashed out" in California. Trash out is when a company comes in and removes all of the stuff that was left when a family has to leave their home due to foreclosure. I was shocked to see what people left behind.
It’s done: http://money.cnn.com/2008/10/03/news/economy/house_friday_bailout/index.htm?postversion=2008100309 All it took was to add an additional $100+ billion in pork to the bill to get a bunch of additional votes. My 5 year old thanks you lobbyists!!! Now all we need is for the baboon to sign it in to law. Maybe he’ll get confused and accidentally veto it.
Okay, I know. That’s a little harsh. I’m trying very hard not to be bitter about having to spend upwards of $1 trillion dollars to rescue our economy. As hard as I try not to be a little bitter about it, I’m not having a lot of luck. Maybe it’s because I’m not confident that this "rescue" will really save anything. Regardless of whether they
It’s days like this that I can’t help but walk around the house smiling from ear to ear. Why? You may ask. Well, it just so happens that I recently cashed out over $100,000 in investments to use for an alternative investment. Let me explain. A couple weeks ago I got an email from a nice man in Nigeria. He found himself in quite a
