Money is Mechanics

Had a “no spend” month in April … went quite well, actually. God’s rule of “Don’t spend; if do, spend wisely” works for my/household expenses, but theKid is a whole ‘nother ball of expenditure. theKid needs “stuff,” and some of that stuff isn’t exactly a need but rather a little slice of joy in the …

Failure Complete?

Whelp, THAT didn’t work. Just got a summons and complaint for one of my monkeys, a particularly large one at that, and here I thought I was awaiting settlement terms. Well, hell.

HAH!  $5K.  With a 29.47-percent interest rate.  HAH!  Proof-positive that SOMEbody SOMEwhere will extend credit to even the most spendthrift, financially-irresponsible among us [imposter].  Gonna cost ya, but it’s there.  Half’s …
