The cognitive dissonance is also the point…

I wonder this in my own little yard, too!

So we make it the rule in our circle, and hope people pass it on!

My hope is that people really radicalize and realize that it takes others to really thrive and fight in a world/system/government built to neglect. I how people band together more and build stronger communities and practice mutual aid, etc. And that people learn what white supremacy really is…

My pet theory is that this is our opportunity to decimate the 2 party system.

I’m feeling big “connect with my people” vibes so so far I’ve made my sister and her family dinner, baked some cookies for clients tomorrow, will host a Friendsgiving this weekend, and have a dinner set with friends to discuss building an intentional community.

Some others have said, but it really matters how old you are and what your goals are. But as a general rule of thumb…

1. money for bills and monthly expenses can stay in a low-interest checking (or savings) account. Keep only as much as you need for a month, maybe a bit as a cushion just in case

2. money you’re planning on spending in the next 1-5 years in a high yield savings account (you’ll make higher interest) to use as “sinking funds” or an emergency fund (3-9 months worth of monthly expenses, give or take)

3. invest the rest

Maybe it’s time to take a class! Just in case she needs it again…

Filthy lucre.

I’ve always thought that if I ever win the lottery, my one really stupid, frivolous purchase would be a 90s gold Honda CRV and then updating the interior to that of a new car.
