Don’t worry, they’ve since been re-torn up and now just rocking them with holes everywhere…

Hopefully people enjoy the show on the backside :)

From one money bro to another…it’s time for some new jeans. The patchy look went out a LONG time ago.

#1. If you won $25,000 in the lottery, what would you do with it?
I actually don’t gamble but here’s my answer anyhow: Pay uncle sam, take a cruise and invest the rest

#2. What’s your biggest fear in terms of retirement?
That’s a tie: 1) Not living long enough to spend my investments 2) Leaving it to someone who doesn’t appreciate it

#3. When interviewing for a job, besides salary, the most important thing you want to know is…
401k match

#4. When shopping for a new wardrobe, what’s your first priority?
What’s the color of the week at Goodwill?

#5. What quote best describes your feelings towards money?
It’s not what you earn, it’s what you keep

I’m with you on holding on to windfalls for a bit, and then using them for paying down debt. If I got the money, I would divide it between paying down debts and building up my EF.

Not being able to retire because I did not come up with a good enough plan to wind down my business.

Most important thing is knowing that the coworkers are decent humans and that I am safe from homophobia and heteronormativity.

I don’t buy clothes if they don’t make me feel wonderful. Good clothes are worth it and so is feeling good.

Money philosophy – as evidenced by my small business playlist “Fuck you, Pay me.”

In reply to J. Money. I had about 3-5 work shirts that I rotated between every day for the last two years of my education but they all looked exactly the same so people probably thought that I only owned one set of clothes and wouldn't have recognized me if I wore something different. Luckily, for me, I was already married by this point.

In reply to Latoya | Life and a Budget. Interesting!!! I haven't thought about that much, but you're totally right - especially with how easy technology helps with making money now compared to back in the day. Also agree w/ that paper debt letter ;) If they scrimp, you better print out that email and frame it up!
