More Finance Questions

Recommended Posts

Hello to all... Read the posts on finance, but still have a few questions... I was planning on doing the once a month thing, but can't take it... If wishes came true, I'd be a JM all ready... Can't wait to quit my job in 2 years or so and jump!
So my question, I'm totally having a rough time paying for all of this... Do ya think it would be easier to pay as much as possible at a time and be broke for a while, or be smart with the money and pay as I can...
Just looking for some good advice here, I'm dying to be in the clouds every day!!! I only started June 21st, 2002,

I've lost count on the number of people that I've seen come out get really pumped on 2-4 jumps then lose interst due to money, injury, seeing someone get injured, failure of levels, AAD fire, cutaway, the list goes on and on... I'd say only about 2-5% of the people I remember starting the non tandem part of the program finish and stay jumping at a year.

Spend wisely.. being broke over something that you might not stick with totally sucks...

An excellent point. It's all fun and games till someone has a cutaway. Buy two or three jumps at a time and go from there. Let the addiction build up before you sell the house and kids.
