mostly the only reason I am making this much money is to pay for tuition :'(

Hiro

savings: wat
checking: like $5
wallet: about $1.50

in like 2 weeks or so I'll get about 4k in grant money (harr harr) and pay back my house payments so it'll go down to about 2.5k

I make a lot of money and I spend a lot of money. So you know how that goes.

There's a Comfort Keepers gas check for 7.70 in my wallet along with 37 bucks. Enough today for a haircut and fuel. I made 170 yesterday but used most of it for drugs. My savings account varies wildly because I get direct deposit and because I raid this stash more often than the others: currently standing at 12,832. You can blame tuition and credit card payments for this being so low.

I share checking with my mother because I want her to have access to it and the money because my father is a control freak and 'handles' the finances, despite being unemployed. There is over three thousand in there, mostly mine.

I also give money to my parents, not as payment for some service or accommodation, but because this is a family and a family with secret pockets is not very close at all. Plus they need it and I have it.

I have a Bud not Buddy paperback cut up inside the pages which contains and conceals 500 dollars in 100 dollar bills. It's hidden under the floor in my room. I pretend that it is for emergency use only, but I casually take one or two bills here and there for various reasons, irregularly replacing them.

I have made almost 1000 bucks so far this month. Three quarters of that money is already gone.

I am not very organized with finances and often waste money on things that add up. But when I award 7 dollars to the pump attendant for filling up my tank and being a good chap, it makes me feel good and I can see it means something to him. He calls me sir and I get the fastest service.

When I party I go big, and when I don't I do nothing. But I am not rich.
