Budgets Are Sexy

Saw this over at My Pretty Pennies this week and couldn’t help but to copy it ;) It’s Friday after all, and it’s just so fun! (and by fun, I mean very very nerd-like and something you only do online so none of your “real life” friends catch you.)

Plus, it’s always good to take a fresh look at how your week is going with this stuff. Money can take on a whole mind of its own sometimes, so reflecting for a bit can help!

Shall we begin?

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on _____.
My plane ticket to Poland: $829.20.
And then probably the $50 I slapped on my Metro Card.

2. Today I feel _______towards money.
EXCITED!  Sometimes I get frustrated with it, or even bored with it all (*gasp!*) but lately? Just plain ol’ excited.  Cuz I’ve seen first hand what it can do ;)

3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free/inexpensive thing I did last week that made me happy was_____________.
Go on a walk around a lake.  There’s nothing I enjoy more than refreshing up the brain with some clean air and a little exercise. Well okay, actually I’d have to put sex in that category too, but that’s not always free now is it? (bah dum, ching!)

4. I will consider this week a success if I _____________.
Don’t spend any more on alcohol!  Not only for my wallet, but mainly for my body.  It ain’t the nubile 20 year old like it used to be.  Next on the list would have to be investing in Kiva entrepreneurs.  You like how I prioritize that? :)

5. My first job was ______________.
Oh wow, that’s a good question… If I do recall correctly, my very first job was babysitting, followed by mowing lawns, and then more “professionally” as a night stocker at a grocery store :)  Then came midnight shift at the bowling alley, bread stick boy, GadZooks worker, and on and on…. but really you just needed that 1st answer ;)

Your turn! Copy and paste this below and just fill in the blanks (or make long drawn out answers too – whatever you’re in the mood for ;))

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on _____.

HAPPY FRIDAY everyone!!!  Get that money!
