not as much as I'd like, but enough to get by comfortably...I consider myself neither rich nor poor..a happy medium I suppose
I am in a cash flow crunch at the moment. I just bought a house and several other things. I do have a great savings though.
On a real life scale I would be considered poor. But I have everything I want and need and more so I consider myself rich. FTW
$3.81. I get paid on the 26th, should get about $500. I get paid also next Tuesday for (un)Employment Insurance, which should be about $390. I get OSAP (Student Grant money) sometime next week for $939. But all my OSAP money is going towards paying off my credit card debt, $450 of my paycheque will go towards rent and whatever is left will go towards purchasing my books, groceries, a magazine subscription, and the rest will be put into my savings acount. I'm fairly poor right now, yeah thanks for reminding me. Why bird, do you have money problems too?
I have more money than I will ever be able to spend. There are things that money cannot buy though. So it entirely depends on your perspective.
WE live within our means. our bank account may not reflect riches....but our friendships, family, and play time reflect good times I have never been one to care about money. I feel fine just getting by....gratitude seems to be key.
I'm sitting pretty at the moment due to a surprise inheritance. God bless that old dude who went to the States in 1932 and built up a medium sized real estate business in sunny California. Even better he never married and hated pets. I copped the lot. Sittin right now looking at a Nordic Goddess trimming my hedge.
We live within our means as well...we don't have piles of money, but we are warm and have plenty of food.
where are your kids? two birthdays tomorrow? are you one of them? if so....then perhaps you'll get some money
