I was just giving you a hard time.
I wasn't asking for how much change was due, as much as I was asking how to count it back. Pete had the right answer earlier. Anyway, congrats on becoming a productive tax paying citizen. Now don't forget to start a savings account and just throw $5 or $10 a week in there to cover unexpected costs in the future.

I'm going through a seminar right now that is being taught by Dave Ramsey.
I can thankfully say that I'm doing most things right, but there are also some things that I wish I had done differently.
But in a nutshell, if you never borrow, it will have the same effect on your bottom line as making at least 20% more money than the next guy with a wallet full of credit cards.
The borrower is slave to the lender. Slave. Who wants to be a slave?

I'm done with 75% lowers, and about 80% uppers...lol This kitchen/bath/laundry room is big. Loving it!! I really enjoy high end finish work. It's kinda relaxing if you have the tools and time.
Thats for sure!
I didnt see any allowances anywhere, they just told us to stockpile what we would need before hand...Thanks for the compliment by the way, like Jim said, lessons learned the hard way...lol
Congratulations Sheldon!!!!! Thats a great feeling!
Well I'm off for work, coffee is ready, truck is running and it's not even 615 yet. Gonna be a great day!!! Sunny, 65 maybe, drive to work watching the sun come up!!
See you guys tonight,
Thats for sure!

See you guys tonight,
I had a GREAT day yesterday! Sold my place and made a cool 30 grand profit off of it!You're absolutely right, Dan. We're finally moving towards that debt-free arena as well. Once the state of Alabama sends my refund check, my Excursion will be completely paid off and the payment we've been making for it will be snowballed into the payment to get my truck in the same position. Once we have that done, Lord willing, we'll snowball BOTH payments into the mortgage.... takes a lot of discipline, but it definitely pays off!
I've had a few county ones, best one I had was LA County Fire, 250k a year they spent with me. I just wrote an amendum that prices subject to change per manufacturer. you could do the same in your bid to cover market conditions at time of job and cover your butt.
dude, I....... YEP, fun..... oh..... I..... where is this babe at, I got to talk to her.
