budge it
Tuesday, Oct. 26, 2004
How voyeuristic can you get? Take a look at my checkbook balance/budget minus the deposits�.I spend tooooo much money on books, coffee and going out to eat. Ohhh but I�m barely ever home so my living expenses are cheap cheap. And notice no car payment�..zip zilch�at least not yet... Incidentally for those that might think my rent is cheap...yah it's not so bad, but I also live 5 minutes from St. Pete beach in a very decent part of town very close to TWO bookstores....right around the corner from where millions vacation yearly. I'm a lucky girl...truly lucky. A lot of my "out to eat" involves my son and/or my fianc� and he does his share of paying too. It also includes lunches between jobs. Notice...I do not have a home phone nor do I have cable TV. What for? I'm never home. :-)My list of cash withdrawals is scary...I have no idea what I spent that money on except that I probably paid some sort of incidental bills somewhere along the way. This examination of my finances makes me want to write down every dime I spend and on what like a OCD freak.Bookstore | Coffee | Out to Eat |
