...the Convention thing.
You know I live in Italy, you dont know that we (I and my wife) have bought a laundry store 2 years ago, and have to pay it for 8 years.
We also rent the home where we live.
We have a daughter, and...3 dogs...
All this means an expense of 22,000$
All other expenses are 24,000$
Our annual income (laundry and my job) is approx. 50,000$ (net income).
I hope that you believe to this numbers, it's the truth..... otherwise I can give you my tax sheet...:-)
OK the amount of money remaining is 4,000$
The trip to Las Vegas is 2,000$, the 50%
I have to thank my wife, that permits me this trip. I am not sure I would do the same for her!
She know that I want to go to the Convention because it's my primary goal for this year. This goal costs us the 50% of our year savings.
And I will be there! Please, do the same thing, may be the most important event of your life!
Love to all you, and PFNAD
