Bolas 5 #1 September 26, 2003 [whining] It took almost three years but this sport has finally done it. I'm in the red. And I don't mean the debt from my truck or trailer, or even my rig (I put that on a 0 APR credit card.) I'm talking my overdraft protection was the only thing that stopped my checks from bouncing like a 180 toggle turn at 50 ft. So, needless to say, (Then why say it ) I can't jump this weekend. It sucks when your property tax, car insurance, and renters insurance all come due at the same time. I was even demoing and thinking about buying a Big Air Sportz Lotus 190 just last week. [/whining] The good news is I can jump next weekend since it's after payday!!! Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

ChasingBlueSky 0 #2 September 26, 2003 Welcome to the real world where most of us jumpers live....in the paycheck to paycheck category. Funny how unemployment twice in three years plus jumping can do that to a person._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

fudd 0 #4 September 26, 2003 You have a car/truck? I had to sell mine There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyrose7 0 #5 September 26, 2003 the fact that you have renters' insurance(could be xtra jump $) tells me that you still have things to sell in your place of dwelling (xtra jump $). You're still doin' ok! ...maybe I am stupid here, but, why are you paying a property tax if you are renting?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.

Bolas 5 #7 September 26, 2003 In North Carolina you pay property tax on everything: I had to pay it for my truck, trailer, and my dog (finally written proof I can show her that I own her, not the other way around) I'm no lanlord but if I owned the place I lived in I'd be a slumlord.Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.
