OMG! They just announced on UPN, no more BILLS!!! Did you all see it?!?! They had just announced it at the end of THE HUGHLEYS.

CTFU -- my bad y'all. Just a jokey joke.

But for real, what would YOU spend your money on if you never had to pay another bill or student loan.

Like my soror MeezDiscreet, I would buy some nalia' I've been eyeing, and all the Delta artwork I could find, lol...

I would also:
-make sure my hair and nails (hand & toes) stayed done..
- build up my shoe collection
- bank more $ for my children
-financially assist some sorors whose hearts remain with Delta, but their finances don't allow for them to be active..I love my sorority and would try to help any soror who can't (for whatever reasons) financially help themselves..

o.k. enough, I'm getting emotional here.. sorry...

~ Give more to my church than just my tithes.

~I would definately furnish my house! I have been there quite some time and several rooms are EMPTY!!!

~CAN WE SAY SHOES!!! Oh, yes. Definately shoping. I think I would go crazy with kid clothes.

~I would definately keep the do (hairdo that is) done since at this moment, can you say PROBLEMS with my crunchy kitchen!!

~Oh, yea. I would have to keep somebody on my feet, hands and eyebrows (which are sproutin' trees). They are having issues too!

CrimsonTide4 · #6 05-21-2002, 11:39 AM

BOOOOOOOOKS!!!

Music/Movies

Clothes & Shoes

Trust me, my nail tech and hair stylist would get tired of me.

TRAVELING -- 3 day weekends would be spent hopping a plane somewhere

ARTWORK -- Delta and Black Art in General

Various philanthropies that I support -- AIDS, Cancer Research, Black kids

Mama's 50th birthday blowout. She told me Sunday she wants to do the TJ Fantastic Voyage Cruise.

Lifetime memberships for my sands, me, and close soror friends.

Oh, one of my favorite subjects: MONEY!

First, I would invest, invest, invest. It's nothing like building my income!

Second, I would open my first beauty shop, and eventually expand into a franchise. I'm not talking about a beauty shop where you go to get just your hair and nails done. I'm talking massages, facials, beauty consultations, spas, makeup, hair, manicures, pedicures.... I want a GLAMOUR beauty shop.

Then, I would splurge on all the material things I want... clothes (I LOVE shopping... it's my addiction), shoes, jewelry, interior decor.... the list goes on. Of course, I would spend money on my family, as well.

Oh, I can't forget keeping my hair and nails "did".

i'd divide the money between the church and central jersey alumnae's scholarship committee. that way, more money could be given to kids for college.

also, i'd buy myself the motorcycle of my dreams.

First, I would do the full 10% tithe, instead of what i currently tithe.

Then it's books, books, books, and a car. My hooptie is 12 years old, and I pray over her erry day!

Since I'm a broke grad student, that's pretty much the end of my disposable income. If I could, I would contribute regularly to my IRA.

CrimsonTide4 · #10 05-24-2002, 06:22 AM

To God: I would tithe all of the time because he has literally been "Better to me than I have been to myself."

To Omicron Theta: I would give to our scholarship fund in memory of one of our charter members who passed away.

To my mom and brother: What is mine is yours.

treblk · #11 05-25-2002, 09:06 AM

I would finally buy the house of my dreams!!! and decorate it to my hearts content

Make sure Xi Chi is taken care of!!
My family will never want for anything
make sure all those I care for are taken care of
save, invest, save, invest then....
Shop, shop and shop some more

Finally put my massage therapist certification to good use and open up my own shop

- Tithe

- Give out scholarships so that others will have an opportunity to
attend College or Trade school.

- *Enable my student(s) to possess a decent shirt, pants, shoes
that they may not be able to afford.

- Continuous research to find a cure for Cancer, Multiple Sclerosis
and AIDS.

- Investments

ykimber · #13 07-14-2002, 05:24 PM

Invest

Get some driving lessons

Buy a car

Buy my mom a house

Move

Buy a computer

and go on a vacation

divaemeritus · #14 07-14-2002, 06:14 PM

#1 - Do the tithing I already should be doing.

#2 - Save more thoroughly so that my son can go to school debt-free (the same as my parents did for me).

#3 - Quit my job and go to college full-time instead of part-time - and after finishing college enrolling in a cosmetology school to make my dreams of owning a day spa come true.

#4 - Start a women's foundation that would allow members from all walks of life to be involved in the same types of service and activities that the BGLO sororities are involved in (not to take anything away from the BGLOs, but to add to the rest of the community).

#5 - Spend less time worrying about my burdens and more time being grateful for my many blessings.

Those are the main ones...

WHAT??!!! NO MORE BILLS???!!!

Oh my goodness, where do I begin? Well, of course I would invest and save more. I too would also give more to my church other than what I give for my tithes and offerings. But other than that, I would:

1. Buy an AWESOME wardrobe, INCLUDING shoes and accessories for me, my husband, and kids?;

2. Take YEARLY trips to places like Mexico, the Bahamas, Hawaii, or where ever?;

3. Keep a good $100 or $200 in cash in my wallet EVERY week;

4. Attend daily yoga classes for myself;

5. Purchase every state-of-the-art electronic device that I want and need;

6. Make sure that my house is filled with new furniture...in EVERY room;

7. Be able to offer more financial support to my mother;

8. Keep the hair and nails done, of course;

Oh yeah, and 9. Have a little TUMMY TUCK to top it all off.
