A HOMELESS PERSON ATE MY DOG!

December 15th, 2008 at 06:01 pm

Nah, I'm just kidding. I saw my puppy today and she is fine besides being lazy and curled up in bed all morning. That's how she do.

Well, as ya'll can see by my beautiful side bar over there I have added a section called 'the future' bum bum BUM! Ya'll probably didn't even really notice though. Am I the only one that looks at those? I'm thinking yes. Well, ya'll might laugh at me but the future thing is about saving for my wedding. No, I'm not engaged or getting married. I hope to one day but, truthfully, its gonna be awhile. I have a bit of a comitment issue (who doesn't in this day and age?) and I'm still in college and will be for awhile. It never ends....*sigh*

well, I was watching some financial stuff on Tv (I'm totally addicted. I dunno what they are talking about half the time but they are soooo passionate about it!) and reading blogs and discovered that a lot of people are still in debt from their wedding. That's a no-no when it comes to me. There is no way I'm gonna get in debt and get right back in it as soon as I'm suppose to be starting my life with someone. Some people I have talked to have made fun of me for saving this early. They are like "Why are you saving if you don't plan to get married for another six or so years! That's ridicolous! ME ME ME MOO MOO MOO!"

*note: ME ME ME MOO MOO MOO! Is what I say when people are nagging or complaining. It's Missy speak, the quiz will be next wednesday.

But I say, bite me! That's the whole point! I mean, isn't it better to save for these kinda things years in advance than one year from the date? That way I have a chance to build up more money and it not have a wedding cake from wal-mart that is designed to look like a race track! I am speaking from real life. My friend, God bless her, had KFC cater her wedding and had a Cars (you know, the disney movie?) wedding cake. It even had the plastic things....it even said CONGRADS!....Honey, noooo. That's what happens when you don't save for your wedding. *shakes head*

Okay, before I hear any complaining that my savings fund has a lower goal amount than my future fund does, I just wanna say that isn't the limit. It's just that, when I look at it, it looks a little more reasonable than putting 300,000$ especially for a girl who only has enough to put a dollar in each account.

Speaking of which! isn't that little dollar amount cute! I mean, awww! Missy, is broke! I was gonna buy a pizza with it but instead made little envelopes with the name of the funds on the outside and put a dollar in each one....with the exception of incentives of course because I didn't have enough dollars.

I'm so happy my dog is not eated! Smile

    I think it is great that you are thinking ahead like that!

    I just wanted to let you know that.. yes I did notice them! I do look at the sidebars! Of course, I still can't find any booze! BAH!

    I noticed the side bar too. Congrats on paying off the boyfriend.

    Since you have limited funds, you might want to concentrate on one goal first, like the EF. You'll get there 3 times quicker. Just a thought.

    And good idea saving for expenses before they happen.

    By the by, I use the envelope system too. Very good for those vairable expenses.

    very good idea! everytime i think of wedding expenses i cringe. BF and I have been together for 6 years but probably won't get married for another 4 - or if we decide to have kids maybe then, whichever comes first (we're sort of a little traditional like that... aww isn't that cute?). i just don't see the point in spending a tens of thousands of dollars on a single day, i would rather put it towards my future. which is probably why i haven't even thought of saving for it. but then again, two of our friends have gotten married and they had such beatiful weddings. i would love to be able to give such a nice day to our friends as well. i say when we do have our wedding it will be a very small reception and then probably some type of lunch or dinner in a park or reserve. so i hope it won't cost a great deal. :S

    I think you are right on top of things. Starting to save 6 years (or whatever) before the wedding is how you get that savings built up. And compound interest is a great thing!
