ha ha ha. awesome.

i used to spend a lot of time at the library of congress, and when i had to leave the u.s. for a couple of years i missed that place like crazy!

i still do, to this day, now that i don't live in d.c., but yeah, mmmm, libraries!

[Dead-Air]

I look forward to when my son can talk as I can tell he already has lots to share, just not the words.

You know, I have $8,600 in the bank and by the end of the summer I should have a solid $10,000. I'm looking forward to doing something cool with it -- any ideas? I live at home and pay my mom a little to live here, pay for internet and insurance and food and gas, all together I probably spend $300 a month but make about $1000 working part time. People keep telling me to take my money and invest.. in stock or land or something.. others say to put a down payment on a house... I don't really mind living here for a while, but it's taken me 3 years to get $10,000... and I'll definitely want to move out before I'm at, say, $20,000... so, I definitely want to own a house by the time I'm, say, 24 (so, in the next 2 yearS)...

So, what's a smart thing to do with $10,000 currently? Or should I just keep saving like I've been doing until I move out?

Someone suggested buying a shitty house for cheap and fixing it up but still live at home and just periodically go there and fix it up.. hmm.

I'm not in college, I don't plan on going any time soon, in the future I just want to be a secretary or a mailman, nothing too crazy, just something making a decent wage with good job security, I don't want to be fucking rich or whatever.

read this book:

http://books.google.com/books?id=5iIqi_OIKSAC&dq=rich+dad+poor+dad&pg=PP1& ots=zOwKFjt2N3&sig=GsyjTVxFHa0r_ComwHBssX2vfHE&hl= en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=1&ct=result

it's cheezily written as fuck and full of crap stuff, and i'm embarrassed to recommend it, but it's got good notions about money, things you don't read elsewhere, like the psychology of people's relation to money and how this impacts our financial decisions. in that sense it's a great and very informative book-- but it's not "literature".

also keep in mind we're entering a bear market-- like, i'd invest in pepboys, not in gm stock-- but people who know this have been doing that already.

You must spread some $8,600 around before giving it to !@#$%! again.

Thanks, I'll look into that. I personally don't know anything about money, just you know.. I don't spend a bunch, which is good..
