  dena - who's my stalker??? I'm so curious. stalker - shoutout. how YOU doin? So, i'm back to not having a job. my dad still wants me to drop everything and move up to his cabin to run that motel deal he's buying... right now the motels are so nasty i can't even BREATHE inside them.
but, he's gonna pimp em out eventually, and get wireless hi-speed internet and cable and what not, so once that happens, i wouldn't mind moving up there. i need to make $$$ to pay of my credit cards! and i don't wanna get a "real" job. so, i've planned it all out... i'm just gonna design websites for more clients this summer and sell more crap on eBay!
i need a new car, too. i'm still sportin' the old '93 mercury topaz that i got from my stepdad's grandma... it's sooo ugly. but piiiiiimp. what's your take on buying vs. leasing a car?? i mean, the second you buy a car, it depreciates in value SO MUCH. It's the WORST investment you could ever make. So i figure, if you're gonna be making a car payment every month from now untill the next 3 or 4 years, and then have to be repairing it and fixing it for ten years after that... why not just LEASE a car instead, and get a brand new one every so often for the same monthly payment you'd be making anyway??!!
please lemme know you thoughts on this. and all you stalkers/readers/financial GURU's out there -- leave a comment here to tell me if i'm an idiot or not, and what the pros/cons are on this one. thx :) alright, gotta make some dough... heather
