So here’s the Deal…
July 21, 2008
Ok, so I know you already think, I’m trying to sell you something or whatever. Well I’m not, sorry. There are enough marketers etc in the world that I think you wont have any problem if you so choose to Google them. Anyway. I said I was going to lay it out so I will. I’m 21, and I’ll be 22 in October. The blessed day of the 24th if your really nosy. In May I proposed to the love of my life and sweet heart and we decided to get married in June of next year. Sounds like life is just goin’ peachy huh? Well almost. The deal is this. I am getting married, of course like almost every other poor sap in this country I have debt. I am still in college. And I have to pay for the honeymoon. Did someone say, Greece and Italy? She did. She wants to see her family in Italy then head to Santorini to spend our blissful first weeks of glorious matrimony. Me too, except I have to pay for it. Thats a problem. (Of course if all you fine people would like to send me some Euros, or heck even USD…didn’t think so). So I have one year to shed my financial shackles, throw back my head in a victory howl, and some how make some money. That what this blog will follow, one whole year until my wedding on June 6, 2009, the quest for me to make the cash necessary to do everything I need to. I will be calculating my exact debt and posting it. Also I am going to be trying all kinds of “stuff”, some stupid i am sure to make some extra money on the side. So I’ll document all that as well. My hope is that some how at the end of all my pain and suffering, like a mother in labor, I can give birth to something useful, and helpful, (minus the slime, crying and then, poop). So stay tuned. I will try to do this about every day or so, but between work, school, and the missus, we’ll see.
