Ladies and gentlemen, I am now worth -$4,439.90!
Assets increased to $14,560.10, while liabilities stayed constant at $19,000. The increase would’ve been even bigger had I not spent like there’s NO TOMORROW during winter break. Still, I am very pleased with my net worth this month.

to return these boots and, I didn’t BUY ANYTHING else.
Wow, that was quite an accomplishment, especially since there were so many clothes on sale. So that’s $108 back in my checking account. Hopefully it will be enough to tide me over ’til the end of winter break, when this hemorraging of money should cease.

As 2007 rolls around, it’s another year gone, and we are all another year closer to old age and death, I mean, er, hard-won wisdom and a prosperous retirement. Something to think about: will you have to pay for your parents’ retirement? And maybe you need another glass of bubbly before you can process that [...]
