Next time, offer her a beer, and when she refuses, before she has a chance to respond with what she wants, say "Can't say I didn't offer"

if i dropped:

softball (4) teams = ($50/team, 3 seasons) = $600/yr
eating out = $200/mon = $2400/yr
sold the Exploder = $35/mon insur. = $420/yr plus gas savings
misc. stupid shit = too much $$$

at a min., id say $3500/yr. could save...

unless she's your girlfriend, or she's fucking you, she can buy her own damn drink.

sometimes its stuff like softball and other hobbies that keep you sane though. if that money didnt go to softball it could go to something possibly worse. its a catch 22 at times.

I eat out way too much, which is bad x2 because take out is often really fatty. jus recently cut back on my drinking. so hopefully this will mean more money for the cars, my ira, etc. productive things

True that brotha.

I'm paying off all my debt now and then it'll be house/car/investments/othercrap. I'm being a cheap ass until I get everything paid for. I'm sick of owing money and am getting out of it and only paying cash for shit after I'm done.
