Our Federal Government currently pays a $3,000.00 baby bonus in its desire to have more consumers.

We don't even get a dollar when we have a kid over here.
A 3,000$ bonus from what I hear of how much a baby costs the first few years is a good thing.

Hey Dimitri,
Don't under estimate yourself.
I would love to have you wait for a few years, and then get together with my Daughter Hope.
You have the absolute moral values that I would look for in a husband for my Hopey.

Heh Eric, Interesting proposal, thats the 2nd time a guy has told me something very similar.
Guess if I do meet your daughter I shouldn't call her "Hopey" huh ?? Last time I called a girl by her dads nick name for her she got upset.
Bushy,
The steady job is going to go out the door in 10 years when I retire.

Bushy,
You'll see I'm going to be a retired bum in 10 years working 12+ hour days in the little hobby shop I want to make.
Assuming it all goes to plan.

I just need to save a wee bit of money, even if I end up living out of my shop for a couple of years, it will be worth it.

That makes a bit of sense mate.
Another thing you will find annoying is the time you sit around with next to nothing to do. I don't think you ever get used to that, especially if you have led a very active life and need to be doing something.
Cheers, Vince |
No work to do ?? No problem will use it as a excuse to get out to the shooting range.
