A Real, Live Hallmark Xmas Ornament

30 on friday. Actually I talked with my fiance (not /quite/ married
yet, though i call her my wife because the day is so close) and she has
over $110k in debt. I have $0.

I'll be upset if I don't have my private certificate by the time I'm 35.
Actually I'll be upset about it no matter what happens because
originally I wanted it by my 30th birthday.

I read the stories that you people write and the discussions that go on
here, longing. I've been lurking on this group for a long time.

You guys need to keep talking about flying, and how wonderful it is
I need to live vicariously through this newsgroup or I'll go crazy..

Ouch. You ain't kidding!

Well, be patient. I don't know how old you are, but I spent my first 35
years on this planet gazing skyward, wondering...

It's never too late!

Blue skies,

she has over $110k in debt. I have $0.

Holy crikey! Now *that* is true love...

;-)

One piece of advice: Cut the credit cards up now -- BEFORE the
wedding...

Or, more likely, very bad judgment! :-)

Nah, its love.

Yes, but the love is causing bad judgment to be exercised.
Unfortunately, money problems is one of the leading causes of divorce.


Matt

Well, there's a house in there, so its not really *that* much debt. Two
cars, a house, half a dozen charge accounts... i've seen worse.

I'm 100% aware of the situation i'm getting into, i promise.

thanks for the concern, but i'm quite capable of making my own decisions.

Hoo, boy. That ranks right up there with "Watch this!" as "famous last
words"...
