It’s Been A While Since Friday
It’s been a while, but whiskey-tango-foxtrot…
You have just won one million dollars (woo! yeah baby!!):
1. Who do you call first?
The Grand Poobah, of course.
2. What is the first thing you buy for yourself?
The only material thing I’m lusting after, besides a cabin in the woods with a nice fireplace and plenty of room for bookshelves, is a brass bed. So the bed would be the first thing on my list.
3. What is the first thing you buy for someone else?
A leather club chair with matching ottoman from the store of His choice for The Grand Poobah, and probably the game table he’s been lusting after as well.
4. Do you give any away? If yes, to whom?
Yes, a chunk to my parents as well as to my starving writer friends, and some mad money to The Grand Poobah just ‘cuz he’s cute.
5. Do you invest any? If so, how?
Buy land – that cabin with the fireplace and all those bookshelves is looking pretty good. I’d also pay off all my bills, my car, my student loans – eliminating debt counts as an investment – and then talk to my supercalifragilistic tax doode about how to handle the rest.
