Let's just say my sisters don't treat me so nice. Soooooo, I am kind of hesitant to sign for her. I know I will experience the wrath of my sister but I feel like I need to watch out for me and my boys this time around. I guess you can call me the nice sister that gets treated like poop. I have loaned her money before just to hear she asked money from my father for the same thing. And of course, I have never seen any money back.
Sigh. I guess reading this, I shouldn't.  |
Don't do it tweeze....but you didn't need me to tell you that.
I blow money like there's no tomorrow........at least that's how it looks to the outsider watching a 'self employed' 27yo with a fairly worthless degree. In reality, I make myself deals on what I can 'blow' and I think these numbers out in a reasonable and fairly financially prudent manner. We make our own choices, let her live with hers.
