Radioactive with Happiness?

[Raina]

Life is stressful for me right now but it's SO awesome. We close on our house tomorrow! I can't wait. We start gutting the house tomorrow....the kitchen cabinets arrive on Friday. It's just a fabulous new adventure and I'm giddy!

I'm also feeling good because I'm getting a lot of praise at work lately and am managing to kick butt at school. There's a lot going on but it's worth all the work. I'm so giddy right now I don't know how I'm going to sleep.

That's highly awesome Raina,

way to go!


P.S. sleep = vicodin.

Fantastic.......you will be broke for a long time while remodeling.

Kitchens and bathrooms are generally good remodel investments though.

I just settled with my insurance company yesterday for a car accident I got in fall 2000. So that'll cover the kitchen and bath. As this is an investment and we plan to sell again in ~3 years we know we'll get every penny and more back! AND our mortgage with taxes and homeowners is $100 less a month than the apartment.

Happy to hear that Raina!

You did well sweetheart.

Glad you invested the funds in a house. Many take to gambling or drugs.

I never spent a dime of my settlement on drugs or gambling but I would definitely do it differently now. I had a few good years though. Very good years.

It seems like most every younger person I've known who's ended up with a large sum of money has blown it on things that will not even hold the value at the time or purchase let alone earn equity.

True but having fun is arguably a good usage of money.

I'd be happier wasting money to "have fun" when I can afford to. lol I'm just that kind of girl.
