Rosalind's Life wk4

Today, I got promoted 2 positions up in my career just like I wanted to. my new pay check is a total of 2,618.18 biweekly. My old pay check wasn't bad, a total of 2344.80 biweekly, but I prefer the one I have now. This is a very good thing for me because now I have a little bit more to fall back on in the midst of a hard time where something bad could happen in life such as the stock market falling out, or me loosing my job. I would like to prevent something like that from ever happening to the best of my ability, but in life I learned you really cant live your life based on luck because luck can let you down. At least now I am able to do the things I would like to do, such as maybe treating my family to fine restaurants, or maybe a new car if the old one doesn't get out of the shop soon because there was a lot of problems with the car. I am very happy to move up in life despite the fact that I have had plenty of people and their jealously to put up with. I don't let how people feel about my good life bother me because weather they like it or not, I'm still successful. I am just appalled that I didn't have not one supportive person to share my glory with. I never thought I would be doing so well, now I'd really like start thinking about to getting into college. if I get the chance to get into college, I will get the education I should've properly gotten at a younger age, and I will have more knowledge to take on different tasks. my promotion will also hopefully help me store more money into my savings account because if something bad was to happen, I would have to rely strictly on my savings account to survive because then, I wouldn't be getting money from else where. I only hope I can stay on this good path, and get my car out of the shop without buying a whole new one.

August's Life wk 4

Today I got a house upgrade but i still leave with Rose... but i got my own bathroom! Now i pay $400 dollars! Which is OK i mean I'm glad i got my bathroom because one bathroom for two people is a bit much ( and Rose isn't the cleanest person- KIDDING). So I'm happy about that. But i feel like I'm on some kind of rent roller coaster. One minute it's down next minute it's up! Just last week it was $390 then down to $350 now up to $400 dollars. I don't know if i can take this any longer it's so annoying. But i kinda feel bad, cause Rose hasn't been feeling so good. So maybe she's losing her memory... she would never know if it was too high or too low... wait, this could work for me!

Justus's Life wk 4

Today I went out to Chevy and bought a 2011 Camaro. Me and Kali was riding in it all day Kali what I 2011 Camero but I told her you can took that Camero unless you do not crash it because if you do god will shoot me with lighting. When my boys see this they are going to want to take it for a spin. But I’m to have to say no because you are only 3 years old. My grandmother is going to baby site for me when me and Kali go out for dinner to night



Quincy won the lottery but he only won because he took my ticket so he own me $2000 and I want my money or I will do something but I do not mow yet.

Qunicy's Life wk 4

Everything is going good so far. I had some bad things happen to me and some good. I had a long discussion with my soon to be, hope to be,please pray for me yall. My soul mate and i are now adpoting. I want a baby boy, but he wants a little bratty, big month girl. I already seen the little cutie i wanted, his name is Da'Qune, he is 4 months, and the most adorable little baby you could have ever seen in you intire life. The only problem is it cost alot of money to get him. When i first saw him i ran to him and huged him so tight in my arms it was like he was my own. Brandon just stood in the background and smile, it was the best day of my life. I got the chance to pay all of my bills now that a big lift off of my shoulders. Hope next week holds the best and pray for me so i can get my little soon to be baby boy...

Savanna's Life wk 4

Today I got rid of my bike, and bought a small car. I know it’s going to be a lot of money, but I’m willing to pay for the car which is 200 dollars, and 60 dollars for gas. I am happy and loving life. I am just praying I don’t become homeless from spending more money. I am happy foe Quincy who won the lottery, but I do feel sorry for him because he wants kids. This week my friend Justus also got an upgrade on his car. I am happy, but I’m very frugal. People pray for me!


I got paid this week, I got paid 855.65. I added that by 372.17, and got 1,230.82. I paid for transportation which is 260 dollars. I paid for clothes which is 150 dollars. I also paid for entertainment which is 100 dollars. I paid the other half of my food bill which is 75 dollars. And put 100 dollars in savings. I am left with 545.82 as my leftover money.

Calls for that time away. While I am there I plan to go the Emeril Lagasse’s show. I also plan to go to the top of the Empire State Building . I would like to see the tribute to The World Trade center.

Kree's Life wk 4

Oh geesh, life is going great for my husband and I. We just decided to rent an apartment and luckily it’s fully furnished, it has a very vintage décor. Renting an apartment is $550.00 a month and we also purchased a 2007 Crispy Red Toyota Solara which is $345 a month including Gas. Monthly I will put $80.00 in to my savings account. After I deduct my bills out of my first check I will have $550.38 dollars left and after I deduct my bills and expenses out of my second check I will have $730.38 . Evidently but not surprisingly I still do not have to take out of my money to pay for dates but my husbands birthday’s coming up and I’m gonna take him to J. Paul’s Harbor place, Light Street Pavilion , right on the water front . I think that will be very romantic.

Through these last couple of month’s I have had some up’s and down’s , my stocks have dropped I have been late on a couple bills but things are going good and I’m finally happy , With nothing to complain about.

Trai's Life wk 3

Today I rolled a green 3 and that is get promoted but because I only had one degree and not two I only got $8,000 instead of $12,000 added on to my yearly salary I was making $ 32,500 a year and $ 1,112.50 every two weeks now I make $40,500 a year and $1,386.34 every two weeks.

I was so happy to know that I had gotten more money added to my pay check so now I will have more money to pay bills and more savings and pocket money.

Today, my friend Zach. C got promoted but just like me he didn’t have two degrees he only had one. So, he only got $8,000 instead of $12,000.
Talib got to pick a new career and he picked photography but it paid less than the job he already had so he turned it down.
Justus turned down the chance for an upgrade because he could not financial afford it.

Rosalind's Life wk 3

Today, I learned that my car had to remain in the “chop shop”, because my car not only needed the fan belt replaced, the tire pressure checked, and the engine repaired, but now my car has dry-rot clogged pipes, and I burned out my transmission! I have to get many of my exhaust, and tail pipes pulled, and replaced now because of the dry-rot disintegration in them! I am so mad about that right now because the bill is probably worth more than my car, and another used one! It’s a good thing I have to wait until my car gets out of the shop to know what I’m paying for otherwise I’d get my friend savanna to do it for at least half off. I have to walk to work now, or take the bus but I’m not about to pay for some bus pass. I may be well paid, but I’d like to keep it that way. Walking to work could be a challenge on a rainy day because we have to wear uniforms and I don’t want to ruin my uniform. I am still hoping to get a promotion and be ranked up 2 positions. In other news, my friend Quincy is trying to have a baby, and my other friend kree got married. It would be nice to have someone paying my bills, and giving me money, and jewelry, but being single is ok too.

Its August's Life wk 3

I just failed a major class today and lost $300 dollars which is all of my saving! I only have $877.66 dollars left for the month (with all my rent and payments payed.) Turns out I was overreacting when i thought i was poor... But I'm not. YAY! Lucky i have a good friend like Roz ( who can help me) if i do become poor and do end up on the street ( which is happening to a lot of people these days). But if it did happen she would take me under her wing ( if she had wings!). I'm so lucky that she's such such a nice friend and lets my stay in her home. And for those of you ( you know who you are) who think i need to learn to walk on my own two feet... your right but that's what happens when you have such great friends!

It Zack C's Life wk 3

I got promoted to bank asst. manager. Now, I get $924.23. This is better because I needed the money. I now can pay more on entertainment. Plus, be able to still pay all the rest of my bills. I can also save a little for a rainy day. I now have to pay back what I borrow from Trai. This make me feel a lot better about my job. Now, I can save up for Culinary College . I want to be a chef. So this is a temporary job. I now can live that dreem.

This week l got a promotion which led to a raise in pay. My pay increased by $8000 per yr. So, now my annual salary is $23,500 per year. so, now my paycheck is $903.86. I was getting $530.57 per week so this is a great thing for me. Now, I can buy an apartment closer to where I work. I will not be living with Trai anymore. I am looking forward to being on my own so I can do whatever I want and I won't have to obey his rules. He was weird about that. Plus, when I was living with Trai I had to spend more on food which he ate.
I will also save more towards buying a small car.
Now, that I am on my own I won't have to go by his schedule. I can sleep later on the weekends. I won't be spending as much on entertainment because he would run out of money and I would have to pay for it all. We will still hang out but not as much as we used to. I can watch TV as late as I want without him telling me to turn it down.

Justus Life wk 3

Today, I was try to get an upgrade but I did not have any money from the bills I had to pay and my family wanted that upgrade so badly but they will get over it. These bills are getting on my nervous because I have to take some money out of my savings. My two twins AJ and Teddy are making a mess around the house. Me and Kali have to clean up behind them. Well, this is what I get for having kids. Me and Kali really need a vacation.

My friend Quincy is trying to have kids so he wont fill so lonely but I’m trying to tell him having kids is a pain when you have twins he better enjoy it before you have kids because it will ruin your life.

Quincy's Life wk 3

Everything has been going well. The night I went out I found somebody. We have been talking for a while now. All I can say is; tall, light skin, long braids, nice swagger! We are going out to T.G.I Fridays this coming Friday, but I am not paying for anything. I need to go grocery shopping because I have been having been eating more for some reason. I’m just waiting for this week to be over, life is rough. I’m so happy for my friend Kree she getting married. I am so happy for her, and for my friend savanna she finally got her upgrade, she’s getting her bike back. At least good things are happening to them.

I can't believe out of all things on earth it had to happen to me. Yes, my stock failed 20%. This issue has changed my savings account, pocket money and even on paying most of my bills. I went from having $1093.46 to having $646.46 but I need some pocket money, and put some in my savings. I took $161.96 out of 646.46 and in my saving I now have $484.50. Now, I really have to watch my spending, Thank God I’m not paying for this date. Well hopefully next week it all comes around, Pray for me.

Broke as a joke,
Quincy

It's Savanna's Life Wk 3

Today, I got my bike back! It was only in the shop for one week. I am so happy. It is almost summer time and I was so hot walking to work. I did want to win the lottery, or even get promoted but my luck was not that great. I am jealous of Zach K. and Trai because they got promoted, which means more money on their paychecks. But, at least I didn’t get anything bad like my friend Quincy’s. His stock failed and he lost 444 dollars. If that were me I would be somewhere on the street. But at least I didn’t get kids, because I do NOT want kids anytime soon. My life has been going good, not great, but not bad either.

I had 372.17 from last week and I paid for the following things.
Last week I paid for my rent for the entire month. This week, I paid the other half of my food bill, which is 75 dollars. I got my bike back, and I paid 20 dollars. I put 100 dollars in savings, and have 177.14 left in my savings.

Rosalinds Life wk 2

Today, April 6th 2010, was a very long day for me. My car broke down outside of the hospital during my lunch break hour. S,o I had to call a tow truck to take it to the shop so I could pay for the repairs to get it fixed. The damages where not that bad. I just had to replace my fan belt because the old one was bent, and i had to get my engine repaired because its been smoking for a while now, until today, when it just broke down. I figured i would also get my tires checked, and an oil change done as well so my car should be good to go by this time next week. usually life doesn't take a bad turn for me, but i guess im running low on luck. im am however happy, seeing as though I am insured, and I make enough ends meat to be ok in a tough situation, in which I'm grateful for. in other news, bills came in on the first, and I had to pay, in which I made all my payments on time, so I'm happy about that as well. meanwhile, one of my friends got a promotion. I am very happy for my friend, but it would be nice if I could get one as well. we'll just have to wait and see what life has in store for me I guess.

Justus's Life wk 2

Today, I had twins that were unsuspected. She did not even tell me that she was pregnant. So, that took $300 out of my balance. So I had to move to a town house which is much better than a studio apartment because it was really cramp in there. Then, I had get a better car this week I had last week balance which was $1490.00 and my wife added 500 so that brought me to $1990.92 and I had to pay for the twins then I had to pay for rent then car, gas 1/2 and saving. I paid for everything and what I have left over is $65.92. I can only buy food with that.

My friend Quincy won the lottery $2000 I wish won the lottery. So, it can help me with my bills.

Talib's Life wk 2

Today, I went out with my roommate. We went shopping for things we needed like clothes, food and extra things we needed in our apartment. I ended up spending $300. This affected me because I won't have enough money to pay for my entertainment. But thats ok, I can go with out entertainment until i get paid again. Hopefully we have what we need next week.


My friend Justus got married. Then the crazy thing is that he had twins shortly after. I hope his wife dosent leave him. I'll help him out a lilttle bit if he needs it because I know it must be exspensive taking care of twins. I hope he's not planning on having anymore children.

Trai's Life wk 2

Today I got my every two week pay check and that is 1,112.50. I spent some of the money on food, rent, transportation and clothes. And that left me with 342.50.

I rolled a green one and that is business venture. If I rolled a even number the second time I would have gotten $500 in my pocket but if I rolled a odd number I would have lost $500 and out of bad luck I rolled an odd number, but instead of taking the money out of the pay check I took it out my savings witch left me with $500 in the bank. Then I let Kree borrow $75 because her stock market went down again but I let Zach. K stay with me until he gets his house back. He pays me $175 for rent so I put that back in my savings account. That left me with $600 in the bank.

My friend Talib had to put his car in the shop, Justus got his wife pregnant and is having twins, Zach. K lost his house and Kree’s stock market went down again. Rosalind had to put her car in the shop, august lost $1000 in shopping and Quincy got a promotion and Savanna has to walk because she got a down grade on her transportation.

Auguats's Life wk 2

Today, I went on a shopping spree and somehow spent 1,000 dollars! I’m broke! I don't know where i'm suppose to get that kinda money from! I don't know what to do. I'm still living with Roz in her house, and she seems to like me being there...i hope. I hope she doesn't kick my out! I still have my car which I'm happy about but i miss my bike plus now i'm spending 200 dollars a month plus extra money for gas. i feel like i'm losing money and now i have to pull 1,000 dollars out of thin air!

Zack C's Life wk 2

I was out with my friend Trai and we were bowling. I bet $300 dollars that I could beat him and get at least 200 in the game. I was doing great until Trai got three strikes in a row. Man was I mad. Then, I heard him say “Show me the money.”

I gave him the $300 dollars after what he said to me. Now I have 300 dollars less than I normally would have. Trai is richer now. I just don’t have that much luck do I? Maybe next roll I will get something better. And not a bad thing that makes me lose money. I hope that I gain money.

Savanna's Life wk 2

Today, I lost my bike. I miss the cool handlebars and the wind blowing through my hair. Now, I have to walk to work. As soon as I get a new job after losing the old one. Of course something happens to me of all people, why? I do not know. But at least I didn't get a downgrade on my home, or else I would have cried because I don't get along with other people very well. At least I don't have to pay 20 dollars this week. So far, I have been happy this week and I know I will defiantly get my bike back and working.

Since I get paid 1,097 because of my leftover bank money, I paid for my rent which is 550 dollars a month. I also paid for my food which is 75 dollars for 2 weeks. I am left with 100 dollars in my bank account and 372.17 dollars in pocket money. I am happy and I have money for new clothes, and to go shopping with my friends.

Sincerely,

SavannaHeckman

Quincy's Life week 2

Well, everything is going good so far. My life is really turning out to make me happy, and make me big bucks. As you know last week I won the lotto. That really helped with bank savings, and has taken a great toll on my pocket money. I realized paying bills isn’t really all so fun and joyful. It has its ups and its downs. Some of the ups are; you get bills out of your mind so you dont have to stress, and you don’t have to worry about losing anything you own. A down is losing money from the bank and your pocket.
Last weekend I had to go shopping because I notice that my apartment was way too boring for my expressive personality. So, I decided to redecorate around in my living room and kitchen because I had to watch my spending. So I did the main rooms, and I’m doing the other rooms later on my next pay week. I like what I have done with the place. But everything is good.

I’m so excited, I finally got a promotion for $8,000 yr. Now I don’t have to worry so much about putting too little in my bank savings. With that promotion I paid everything, my rent for $550, car payment for $300 plus gas for $90, I even have more money for clothes and food. This has really help with finances. Plus, I’m planning on going out tonight so the promotion money is going to make my night fantastic.

Kree's Life Week 2

I officially feel like I have bad luck. My stock dropped again and I had to borrow $75.00 from Trai and have to give it back by the end of the month.
I paid my rent at the first of the month so I could just get it out of the way , as of now I only have $ 49.53 to my name but I have to buy $19.00 worth of grocery’s from harvest fair so I basically only have $30.53 .
My boyfriend and I went out to dinner at the Olive Branch because tomorrow’s my birthday. Then, while we were there we had an interesting conversation about the struggles that I’m going through and how I need some spring and summer clothes because it’s getting hot. So, Antonio told me to close my eyes and when I opened them he surprised me with a pair of sterling silver Tiffany earrings and a card with $250.00 dollars in it. He said I deserve it. I AGREE!
I will pay Trai back with the money Antonio gave me and then I will still have $205.53 to go shopping. YAY ME!
I’m enjoying life right now, I am about to start saving to go to school. =)

Talib's Life wk 1

I am Talib I am currently an accountant my yearly salary is $45,000. My monthly income is $3080.76. All my monthly expenses equals $1,150. I spend $100 on food, I live with a roommate so I pay $350 for the rent and my roommate pays the other half, $150 on clothes, $500 on my Luxury car and $50 for entertainment. My money left over a month is $1930.76. I put $1,000 in the bank and keep $930.76 in my pocket.



When I rolled the dice I rolled the color black, this effected me because I had to loose my luxury car and now I have to take the bus while I wait for my car to be repaired. I have to pay $45 for a monthly bus pass and that $45 takes away from my entertainment for the time period. At this point I dont know how much it would cost to get my car repaired. The mechanic will give me an estimate by the end of the week. Taking the bus also effects me because it takes me longer to get to where I need to go, I also have to wait on a bus stop and follow the schedule and most of the time the buses arent on time.

Zack K's Life wk 1

My name is Zach and I am a hairstylist. I make $15,500 in a year. In a month I make $1,291.67. I live with my father and I ride my bike to work. It cost me $20 a month for the bike.

For entertainment my monthly budget is $126.67. l enjoy saving money for myself, and l'm putting $660 in the bank per month. So for pocket money l will have $120.

My life was all good until l had rolled the dice. When l rolled the dice last week l rolled the color black. This affected me because l lost my bike. Now l have to walk to work, which is not hard because l don't work too far away.
