No bites on my books

I’m selling back some of my books from this semester and from last semester on the internet. I haven’t had any takers yet. I’m hoping it’s because people are waiting until they get back to school before they buy their books for the semester. If I don’t have any takers by the middle of next […]

I finally got shoes

I do love shoes. I went shopping today and tried on several pairs. I tried on a pair of boots but they were too big on my legs and didn’t look right. I wound up getting a pair of patent leather flat shoes. I also got a couple pair of trousers socks. We walked around […]

Jim Cramer’s new book

I want to buy Jim Cramer’s newest book. Actually I want to buy all of his books because I like a lot of the stock recommendations he gives. I also want to see how he started out and rose to where he is now. I think it’s interesting to read how people started out because […]

I thought about being a lawyer once

I planned on majoring in pre-law when I first went to college but my school did’t offer that program. My choice was political science or something similar. I decided I didn’t want to study that and changed my major. I had plans on becoming one of the many NJ lawyers out there but it didn’t […]

I need lots of dough

I’m not getting tuition reimbursement for the fall because I did horribly in my class. I knew that I had to pay the fees for the spring but I also have to pay the actual tuition now, $1512 to be exact. My total is $1701. I’m taking some of the money out of my savings […]

My friend is moving

I hope it’s not too far away. He broke up with his girlfriend and they were living together. Lesson here: Don’t give up everything for a few months. They didn’t live together for six months and now he’s moving out. He still has his clothes but no furniture, no dishes, no tool storage cabinets, nothing. […]

My net worth is going down not up

It’s not even the stock market that’s causing this either. I didn’t pass my class so I won’t get tuition reimbursement this semester. That means I have to take the tuition money out of my savings. I also used some of my savings money for a down payment on my car. I was planning on […]

Getting bonded

No not the financial bonds. Well, in a way this is financial because I’m talking about getting a surety bond. At first I didn’t even know what a surety bond was. According to this faq page it’s a form of guarantee. It’s a credit guarantee not insurance. They are advantageous because they free up capital […]

Paying for school is a nightmare

I thought I had enough money for school for next year but I don’t. I’m short by one full semesters worth of money which is over $1500. I won’t get reimbursed for this money either because even though it’s a class that I need, it’s not a class that my job will pay for. I […]

Keeping inventory moving

When I owned my small business, inventory was one of my biggest assets and liabilities. As such I had to know where everything was at any given moment. I wasn’t fortunate enough to have inventory control software where I could just click on a button and figure out where everything was right then and there. […]

Gift cards

Yes I still have them. No I haven’t used them. I can’t find anything that I want on the websites. I’ll have to actually go into the stores to shop. I guess we all know that won’t happen until after Christmas. The stores are a madhouse right now. People pushing, shoving and generally acting a […]

I hate being broke

Ugh being in school is really cramping my style. I’m trying to lose weight so getting a treadmill would be great. But I can’t afford one right now. I can’t afford anything and it’s getting on my nerves.
I took a pay cut when I took my current job so I had to cut a lot […]
