Well i'm not rich, good looking, athletic, or young, but if life is but a dream I am mildly entertained none the less. If it truly is age before beauty at least I get to go first all the damn time. Money talks, bullsh*t walks, and love makes the world go round and round.

My parents said if I did not earn it i did not deserve it. I bought my first toy at the age of 5 for $20 I earned. It was the most important thing I have ever learned!!!! Nobody will do it for you, do it yourself!!!! The hard way is the only way!
Wow, i don't even make 200 a week at my job now cuz of the slow season. Holy crap!

I thought 'fat-bottomed girls' made the world go round.

I had to beg my dad to cosign for me, I wouldn't dare have asked him for 'financial assistance' as he calls it.

I like the fact that I fend for myself. When you do that, and get what you want, its one of the best feelings in the world.

That's right. Even if I now have to pay every bills, there is nothing better than living on your own. Fortunatly, I have a great job that pays a lot.

man... I had an allowance of 4$ a week in the early 80s. I had a friend in college whose parents where quite rich and his allowance (Yes, even in college) was 2000$ a month over and above his tuition and living costs. Make you sick. He had quite the demerol habit though. (could afford it!)
