$700 credit card debt.
owe a friend 500 (she helped pay for my 7 =T)
got about $30 bux in the bank account.
fortunately, i'm a sales rep working off strictly commission. bout 50-100 bux a sale, but i make about 10 a week. its off the books. so as far as the gov't knows, i have no job =). so no taxes for me, keke.
should be out of debt in 2 months, thEn all my money goes to my 7!
i live by myself, rent's 550 utilities included, (nyc rent is a bitch)
since i dun have a job on the books, banks won't give me a ****** loan, which is feckin homo of them.
oh, and i have one can of spagetti-o's in the kitchen. my fridge is a joke: expired milk and some hot sauce. i've drank tap water for the past month.

Thats great!
My property taxes alone cost almost as much.
I owe for the new car, the new house, the vert is and always has been
free and clear.
As long as I keep paying things off, fixing the house, and increasing my bank account like Ive been doing, I would say im doing OK

Well, I have a few thousand (read 7ish) in debt. Reallistically I could pay it off, but I'm lazy. I pay no interest due to the Soldiers and Sailors relief act. I got called to duty and my credit cards all went to 0% interest...
I paid 4500 cash for my Jeep, so we're good there. FD is almost paid off. 11 months to go I think. Escort is paid for, DUH. CJ is paid for and the Civic is paid for. I have like 9 grand in my checking acct, 1k in paypal, couple hundred in cash sitting around and like 15K in Fidelity Magellan. I guess I'm ok... Funny how fast the damn **** dissapears when you start playing "I need bigger *****" with the FD though....
I've been really lucky these past 2 years. I hit a lucky spot in the system and it's paid off nicely. And I've completely abused it. The military pays all my rent and utilities, gives me money for food, and hands me a grand at the end of each month for Per diem... LMAO I was in Sarajevo for a YEAR and only got 3.50 a day. I'm stateside (At an AFB) and I get 50 something a day... Go figure.
