no april fools
i've been thinking about retirement.
ug, weird.
retirement, as in 401k's and Roth IRAs and all that jazz about diversifying your retirement portfolios, figuring out investment strategies, and determining what my short-term financial goals are.
whaaaaaaaaaaat.
short-term financial goals? make money to live off of. not a bad goal, right? now that i put it in writing, it looks even better. my brother asks, "what about paying for grad school?" well. let's see, that depends on when i'm going to grad school -- and that also relates to what i'd be studying at grad school and where i'd be going. all hypothetical, all a year (or many more) away.
the housing market is also GREAT for buying right now. no really. but do i really want to buy a house? i think i'd rather spend all my money on traveling. but a house would be kinda cool -- and snazzy for remodeling. wendy made an interesting point today when she said that she wasn't interested in getting a posh car. she'd rather spend it on traveling (or clothes). i'll take the former, for sure.
or a boat. they're selling for really low prices these days. everyone's in a depression... maybe i should save more.
maybe i'm just feeling a little bit weary about the upcoming months. l calls it wanderlust. haha.
