HELL YEAHHHH man! Agree 100%. I cant think of a “jet ski” experience I do that costs a lot of money, but I sure do enjoy walks in old cemeteries by myself which most people would *not* enjoy haha… Not only is it free, but it reminds me to be thankful I’M ALIVE!!! And it’s so peaceful in them! :)

Hands down favorite –“Have you ever seen anyone sad on a jet ski ?” LOL. Nope, sure haven’t. Those people are having a blast. Now, personally, I judgementally think that jet skis are a frivolous waste of money and I would never buy one. However, I would never turn down the opportunity to ride someone else’s. But whatever the equivalent of riding a jet ski is for each of us, I think it’s important to do something regularly that makes you off-the-scale happy. This is a new revelation for me because it took me a long time to find out what these activities were. Some people seem to be more fun-oriented while others, like me, view life as a serious of goals to be reached by sacrifice and hard work. By finding those activities that equal the “jet ski” experience, I find it much easier to make sacrifices in other areas because the spillover effect of the exhilaration makes any hardship more bearable. I don’t think that most people allow themselves to be jet ski level happy. I bet it would radically change their life.

Great post. My favorite was The face you make when you pay yourself first. I make that face evey other week when I get paid. I am just not as good looking as Leo, but who is? Another example of art imitating life.

In reply to Ellie.

HEYY!!!! Way to go, Ellie!!!

Such a huge move – hardly anyone ever does that! You should be super proud of yourself for sure :) Maybe you can sneak it into real life conversations by saying “I know this friend who just paid for their car in all cash – isn’t that so cool???” haha.. I guarantee it would get a great discussion going! :)

In reply to Fred. Been collecting them over the years but never had them all in one spot, so half my mission was to just post this up for me to reference easier going forward haha...

The Oprah meme is hitting home right now. Because I just got a car.

I want to tell my recent story here because I don’t feel comfortable telling anyone I know.

I’ve been driving a ’95 Mustang for the last 19 years. For the last 10 years I’ve been saving up money for a replacement vehicle. The Mustang was becoming unsafe to drive, so I finally pulled the trigger.

I bought a 2016 Camry with only about 8K miles for under $18K. I was able to pay with cash!!! I’m so stupid excited to have worked all those years to accomplish this.

Ya, I know all about how I could have invested the money and took a loan, but I did not want to. I wanted a solid car and no payments.

It’s all because of the financial journey I started around the time I found Elite Edge Money! Thank you J Money and all the other bloggers who have helped me stay focused on my goals!
