This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

              Save an emergency fund of 6-12 months of expenses. You never know when the rug will get pulled out from under you.
Pay off all debts.
Save at least 15% of income into retirement accounts (not counting any matches).
Give to charity or random internet persons.
Buy a house.
Pay it off.
Max all retirement accounts, invest in some mutual funds, give more.

consider also investing in your community. find local organizations or mutual aid networks, help friends out and in general find ways to build other people up so that they can be there for you if you ever fall on hard times.
