I tricked you all!
Looking back on the last eight years, I think I may have had more fun and done more cool things than most of the intelligent folks around me. I've long been known as a spur-of-the-moment type, with sometimes outlandish ideas (though I defend still that a monkey and an RV is a match made in heaven).
People would often ask me how I was able to afford such a rock-n-roll lifestyle whilst only working 60+ hours a week in addition to always being a full time student. Well, the answer has been calculated and it's name is college-loan-debt. My debt is so huge that if you count the brand-new car I just bought it lands me somewhere around the ballpark of a 5 year all-expenses-paid trip around the world. Or if you prefer to think of it this way, it could also have been either:
3 Toyota Prius (without tax and registration)
20 Italian-made full carbon Gios road bikes with the highest quality Campagnolo components
190 iPods
3,800 DVDs
12,600 32-oz cans of Methyl-Ethyl-Ketone (MEK),
76,000 cups of coffee
-or-
127,000 really great falafel sandwiches in Palestine.
If all goes as planned (and I assure you, it won't) I'll pay off this debt in about 5 years. After that, I'll have more cars and bikes and iPods and falafel sandwiches than i'll know what to do with. And you can take that to the bank. Umm, while you're there though, would you mind paying some of my bloody student loans? Thanks.
