That, and you don't have to think about putting $40 away every two weeks. You forget about it until tax time.

not trying to bust balls here but you should think about opening an IRA OR if your work has a 401k put your extra money there i understand the extra money at tax time but you should also start planning for when you get older (saying this as a 30 year old guy)
then you have money that is working for you (intrest on stocks) and most accounts dont charge a big fee for maintenance
just a thought for you younger guys dont want to sound like your mom or dad :nono: but there wont be any money left in social security for you guys there may not be any for me and i really wish i started when i was younger
OR
open an account at your bank that needs 2 sigs  to get money(your parents ,friend, spouse) that way you have to realy think about getting money out of it
OR
if you really want you can send my the extra money you have and ill put it to good use for you :D

No worries. I put my trick out there as advice, I should expect the same in return. :)

We have a saving account. It's useless, because you have to conciously go through the effort of putting the money away, and force yourself not to use it on double mortgage months. ;)

I do have plans of investing, I guess it's just a matter of getting to it. College isn't getting any cheaper, and with plans for four kids, I imagine I'll need to get to it sooner than later.

paying off one CC, (the rest we have a lower interest loan we are paying on)
pay off wifes semester for school
go on a steak dinner date with the wife

the rest goes into savings to pay bills for a few months.

The $440 I'm getting back will go towards the $2200 we need for vacation this year.

Kinda just sitting on it until a car comes along that grabs my attention. I'm looking for a Fox body with no rust and a good drive line and a V8.

And on top of the $6000 I got back I sold the Cougar and am selling my Tempo to buy another Fox Body. I realy want another Mark VII but can't find one in central IL that runs and is less that $1500. Anybody know of one in driving distance from me.

Did someone say Cat Jam? ;)  Missing two years in a row is punishable by death.

Based on how much I make, I'll probably go out to eat at Wendy's.

String me up then because I'm not going to be able to make it this year either.  I have a family reunion at the same time and haven't seen some of them for five years so I am opting to go to that instead.

But you'll get it biggie-sized so that should make it worthwhile.  :D
