5 things you want?

[LuxLiving]

1. My mortgage paid off making us DEBT-FREE!!
2. Our retirement accounts to balloon up to 'never have to worry about enough ever again' amount. (One can dream, can't one???)
3. My basement emptied of all the extra clutter that's down there!
4. My house finished painted. We got the bottom painted ourselves. Need painter w/scaffolding/cherry-picker/sprayer/magic wand for second story, BEFORE winter sets in.
5. Father In Law's estate wrapped up so we can finally get to the grieving part!! I'm telling you folks this has been the absolute worst part of losing him and The Hubster becoming the executor! No time to grieve, just business/paperwork/personal effects to get done/rid of!! Hate it! My husband has had absolutely no time to just reflect on the love and companionship of his father that he no longer gets to enjoy.

1. My family to be happy & healthy
2. To be debt free
3. To be able to send my kids through college.
4. Mortgage to be paid-off.
5. To be able to help other family members to be happy with themselves.

Good Luck to all!!

1. an enjoyable job
2. a happy wife
3. happy kids
4. comfortable lifestyle
5. a home gym (with mirrors, all the eq I need, db rack, squat rack, great sound system, rubber flooring...)

1 causes 2 pretty consistently, 2 causes 3 and 4, 3 definitely has to do with 4, 4 enables 5, 5 promotes 2...

1. A fully working time-machine so I could go back into my past and correct my mistakes (possibly creating new ones).

2. For the time-machine to be locked and no way to get into it. (All the so called mistakes got me where I am today and I don't want to correct 1 mistake if it changes my family period. I love my wife and 3 kids just the way we are!)



3. And 10 billion dollars in small unmarked, non-sequential bills.

Our? That never crossed my mind! I suppose I would have room for 300 or so ladies to join me. If I had 1 female join the wife and I for this trip I am sure I would be alone and we would have only 5 billion left to spend.

Oh okay, in that case, I'd just prefer to be your private financial manager with a mere 3% fee on any future wealth I can create for you.

Put him into transportation stocks. Ten billion in small bills will take a heap of hauling. He might as well profit from the freight.

Revision from Nov 2005, as I got into grad school.

1. I would like my car & student loans to be paid off
2. I would like to graduate with my EdS in School Psych and get a real job
3. I'd like to go on a nice honeymoon next year after we get married! (Trying to save!)
4. I'd still like longer days so I can squeeze in my 20 hours of work, 15 hours of babysitting, 4 grad classes & related homework/assignments, not to mention spending time with my fiance and our dog, and time to go to the gym.
5. 3 day weekends so I have more time to visit friends that have moved to other states and so I can visit family 350 miles away more often.

A honeymoon
Some bridal protraits
A house (any house)
A car (any car)
