I am drawing near the end of my college career and how do I keep my life so simple? I want to have a wife and kids; what sort of job could I find in that narrow range between the poor house and extravagence?<BR/><BR/>I don't ask these as simply academic questions; if anyone has any good ideas, let me know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10711625.post-1111849249147322552005-03-26T07:00:00.000-08:002005-03-26T07:00:00.000-08:00Have you seen the new cartoon movie Robots?

I won't tell you what the movie's point is but I found it goes along with your post. I agree with you.

You guys...Sara, <BR/><BR/>I don't know your situation Sara... You guys may have found a way to make it work. But...<BR/><BR/>Statistics show that most couples that fight, fight about money issues.<BR/><BR/>Plus a lot of people I know think that being a stable person and becoming responsible means haveing tons of bills and working too much...<BR/><BR/>Lastly, a lot of people I know won't freely admit it, but if you catch them on the right day they will admit they are lonely, stressed, or just plain wore out. They have spouses they feel like they have lost an intamate connection with and their kids are growing up with one or sometimes two parents that are just a little to out of the picture.<BR/><BR/>Two new cars and a house you can barley pay for and he is not done yet... Do you ever worry about the not done yet, part?<BR/><BR/>We start out working 40 hours and it is that "not done yet" that gets us enslaved to working or stressing out 50, 60, even 70 hours a week. When does responsible adult turn into a bad habit? When does stability turn into a husband you never see that is keeping a steady job?<BR/><BR/>It is sometimes hard to know where the line is... Like I said you guys may have found a good place to make it work... As for me, I am going to try to shoot for conservative knowing full well we tend toward excessive.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the insight.The Curehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10229242902013672384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10711625.post-1111777084531535702005-03-25T10:58:00.000-08:002005-03-25T10:58:00.000-08:00As shepgc pointed out, I, as well like reading you...As shepgc pointed out, I, as well like reading your posts because they are always so insightful.

God tells us not to worry about tomorrow because it will take care of itself, and not to worry about our daily needs. He's got them under control.<BR/><BR/>Remember, money is the most fluid thing you'll ever own. Money comes, money goes. You'll always get more, and it will never fully provide what we all need.Aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00044387029340247487noreply@blogger.com
