Sabrina’s Money Madness

I update my net-worth quarterly. I know a lot of people do it monthly, but I don’t feel like schlepping all of that paperwork out every month. I don’t have a lot of assets but it’s just a pain trying to add all of that stuff up.
Well, there’s good news and bad news. The good […]

The casino in Pittsburgh is not even in the construction phase yet. The owner is waiting for the challenge period to expire before he breaks ground. His casino is expected to open in late 2008. The reason: he’s building a permanent casino, not a temporary one like other operators.
That may be bad new for Allegheny […]

Everything seemed to go wrong Friday. First, it was raining, hard. I almost got splashed 2 or 3 times. My pants were wet down at the bottom by the hem of my pants. Why did I get so wet? I missed the bus of course. I thought I would be late, but the next bus […]

I didn’t get the interview for the job I mentioned previously. I did get an interview for a Trust Accountant job on Friday. It’s 2 salary grades higher than I am, so it’s more money. I’m not sure how much more but that’s not what’s important.
I hate interviewing. I am just not good at it. I’ve […]

I make money from various on-line survey sites. The money I make from each site has a purpose. Money from one site will go into my vacation club until I reach $100, then all the extra money will go into my stock fund. Right now I have $25 in my vacation club so I have […]

Sheesh, I thought this week would never end. It seemed extra long. I think whenever you miss a day, the rest of the week drags. There was someone out on my team every day this week. We were pretty busy because of that. We don’t mind pitching in and helping each other out though.
I applied […]

I have not been feeling well lately. With the weather constantly changing, my body is going crazy. I was sick all last weekend, then I missed work on Monday.
 I’ve also been busy at work. I was super busy both yesterday and today. Tomorrow I will finally get all caught up with my work. When it rains […]

I need to submit my blog to some blog directories to help generate traffic to my site. The only problem is that since my blogger blog has the same name, I can’t submit this site to those same directories.
 My sites have to be “live” 90 days before I can use them exclusively. It’s hasn’t been […]

I’ve posted these rants on both of my blogger blogs. So now, I’m posting it here as well. I hate UPS and my second post is an update to my rant. I really really really hate UPS.

I thought I had some serious work to do to fund my emergency fund. But I don’t. I’m not fully funded with 6 months worth of expenses, but I do have 3 months worth.
 I don’t make bupkus. So when you multiply 3 x bupkus it’s not a very large number. I’m going to continue to […]

I’m scared to. Last year I didn’t make a lot of money, but I sold a lot of stock including some of my 401k money from my old job. They already took out the taxes, but now I have to pay the penalty. I hate owing the IRS, they take enough taxes as it is.  […]

I just can’t decide on a theme. This is the 4th one. I’ve had the classic, be-inspired, pool and this one. Each had something that I didn’t like.
I did like classic but it wasn’t widget ready. Be-inspired was a very pretty theme, but it’s more suited to a more mellow blog. My blog has madness […]
