Anyone have experience living out of their means...?

My subscription to Ben & J.Lo Monthly has been cancelled for nonpayment, so I've no resource for these important bits of info!

Is it considered poor form to have the gardner turn the hose on the man who's trying to repossess your Bentley?

[Cha]

1. Oh yeah!

[SOteric]

2. Well...then...

how 'bout if we just have the gardner turn the hose on the man trying to repossess the Rolls...?

3. I spent my 20's living beyond my means...

...I had to endure the embarrassment of a bankruptcy...I then started down a similar path. Thankfully, I have now awakened, and within a year, I will be debt-free! :bounce: Feel great!

I always had the automatic sprinklers come on to dissuade the repossessers. :-)

4. Aww,

I'm sorry, Dave. I was just pokin' some good natured fun at Ben & Jen.

Good work on digging yourself out. It isn't an easy thing to do. *big hug*

[GOPisEvil]

5. Ahhh...if I can do it, those two kids can!

:D

[SOteric]

6. Yeah, but

you're nice.

And best evidence suggests they're poo-poo heads.

7. Watch out for those leaves in his wreath, though, really.....

I saw aphids up there. Big ones.

9. What's a

militant feminist lesbian like you doing up close with Ben's head...?

[ForrestGump]

10. Oh, no, really - it was okay

It was GOPisEvil and we were on the hood of NSMA's car at the time.

That makes it all right.

[SOteric]

12. Now there

is a mental image I'm going to need a year in therapy for.

[ForrestGump]

13. I can't have that on what passes for my conscience....

We were just watching the widescreen TV that was also on the hood of NSMA's car - "The Princess Bride," it was. All very innocent.

[SOteric]

14. Forrest!

*smooch*

Such a gentleman for pretending you're a gentleman.

[ForrestGump]

15. *bashful/lobotomized look* *swoon* *kneebuckle*

I like pretend.

Wanna play doctors? :D

[GOPisEvil]

8. True. Good karma helps!

That, and the ability to put stuff down in stores. :-)

[SOteric]

11. My remarkable good sense with $$$'s

comes from never walking into a store with more in cash than I can afford to spend. And never using plastic.

I can always tell myself I'll come back for it, but more often than not my sense of sloth and indolence overcomes my lust for crap I don't need.

16. We used to need the products to survive. Now, the products need us...

...for their survival. So much stuff. Too many choices. Everyone at every turn trying to separate us from our dinero.

I jacked up the plastic *seriously* once, but got out from under it and have never gone back. Cash only now. Otherwise, one is just working for the banks.

Now, about that nifty porch glider I saw in the Restoration Hardware catalog...:evilgrin:
