Friday five can’t think of anything else to post
1. How much money is in your wallet right now?
Not sure, but I think $60.
2. How much money would you need in the bank to feel secure? Rich?
It depends so much on what kind of life I am living. But I think I never feel secure; at least, I don’t now, and I have a fair bit of money in the bank. Rich? I don’t know. Enough that I could live off the interest forever without having to work? But that’s silly, too; it implies no jobs, etc.
3. If someone gave you $100, no strings attached, what would you do with it?
No idea. Maybe I’d get a haircut. Maybe I’d give it to charity. (What those two options say, next to eaach other, I do not know.)
4. If someone gave you $1 Million, no strings attached, what would you do with it?
Buy a house. Renovate my parents’ house. Give my grandparents some money. Get a new computer, and travel. Then I’d just invest the rest. Maybe I’d get LASIK, on my blind blind eyes.
5. How much does something have to cost before it starts counting as “real” money, as a purchase to be considered and evaluated, but below which you’ll buy without really thinking about it?
It really depends. But I consider every purchase at least briefly; anything over, say, 50$ I usually think about a while; anything over 100$ I will come back for. Usually.

I tried to track you back on this, but I seem to have goofed up. :/

That’s fine — I’m glad that people other than just me have decided that trackback is actually a phrasal verb. Easily amused!
