re: #331 The Sanity Inspector

Congratulations! As the resident financial bore, let me encourage you to keep that former mortgage payment in your budget, and sock it away someplace lucrative. S&P Index funds for the kids, college fund, your own beltsander racing league, whathaveyou…

That’s the whole point of the move. I’m wrapping up my MBA in financial planning and it wasn’t long before I took those lessons home and to heart. Index funds for the apes, all consumer debt retired in FULL, all within less than one year’s time.

With the cash we’re not spending, I can start building my dream empire: A trailer park with a pawn shop, liquor store, and check-cashing/payday loan place within easy walking distance.
