Did some quick math in my head and realized there's no point in taking that money out of the money market fund now when I can do it next month.Not sure what I'll earn in the MM fund in 30 days, but I drive past the tax office about 3 times a week so it won't even cost me a stamp to pay in January.Not much, kind of picking nickels out of horse s**t, but every little bit helps.all cash

When we talk about bringing on someone, we talk about how we have to find a "horse".

I left the rat race for good about 2 years ago.

The first Rich Dad book was one of my great inspirations to start my own business and get out of the rat race...

I too am so anxious to get out of the rat race.

I'm met with the following resistance.Mom:I want it sold and out of our names.It's too much of a hassle.I'm afraid that someone will get in there and trash it, and then we'll be out the money trying to fix it.Dad:I need my credit to be better.I don't have time to take people to court to get them to pay the rent.I want it sold and out of our names.I don't want to be stuck making the payments while it's empty.I've told my mom, "Expand your mind a little, you're stuck in the middle class trap, you're caught up in the rat race!"

That is what I originally said if you descend from your high horse and go back and read what I wrote earlier in the thread.

I just parked my race car a few weeks ago for monetary reasons, and it hurts.

Can't put the cart before the horse unless fate provides you a windfall.Here's the worst case scenario of this - I had a wonderful gal I was teaching basic cashflow investing to.

Trouble is that open systems with race track shaped pools get contaminated easily with non-productive algea, and closed systems are expensive.
