do you high FPP earners spend them as soon as you get 100k for those $1500 bonii, or do you save them up so you can look at them as one massive accumulation of glory?

I'm not going to spend mine until January so I don't have to pay taxes on it this year. I will have to pay next year, but my school looks at how much I made this year to determine financial aid so it will just mean less free money.

FYI, borrowed money isn't free money...

its not borrowed, its given

Its given to me by the school, not the government. Not sure if you knew that. We have an endowment of like $10B so they can do stuff like that.

Leaving in a few hours to drive up to Notre Dame for the weekend to see the Notre Dame vs. Duke football game. The battle for 10 losses. I have been a lifelong Notre Dame fan so its been a tough season all around because they were at least winning over the last two years that Duke didn't win a game. Should be a good time no matter the outcome though.

CDL - which school do you go to?

Wow I just got done reading your post about your past Myturn2raise and wowzorz. The worst part is the not being able to get a job afterwards man that would just crush a ton of people. Also lends itself to the repeat offender, but thats another time. If anyone has not read it here it is:

We had 10 losses last year, now we are 8-3 LOL! If only we had beaten Iowa or Michigan, all we would need to go to the Rose Bowl is to beat Northwestern...ugh

Anyways, my first two years here we were 2-9 and 2-10, so going to the Capital One Bowl or wherever will be pretty sweet...since I'm roadtrippin WOO
