Wants & needs
Was thinking about buying some toys with the money I made a while back doing that 3 day rave. I want an Aimpoint magnifier for my suppressed 03A3. I also wanted to get a Giesselle SOPMOD trigger & their Airborne charging handle for my M16. Been shopping for them trying to find the best deal so I have not spent the money yet. I guess that's a good thing because I need to replace the catalytic converter on the truck.

The best laid plans of mice and men are often gone astray.

Catalytic converters are pricey. Ouch.

That's how it usually works when I get a little bit ahead.
Needs always take priority over the wants. What do you mean we need a new roof?

I told my son to get everything that he
wants before he gets married, because everything changes after that... |

The shop owner asked me how I was doing. As I handed over $800.00 cash to the mechanic. I told him that was my Aimpoint magnifyer money. The mechanic handed me back $10.12. They both said they were sorry to hear that.

 The $800.00 came out of the $5K pile in the gun safe. Second job to the rescue. Might be why I've had the second job for 20 years.
