If it wasn't so funny, I'd be mad. Don't even know for

already being bombarded with ways and places to spend
it. I just hope that too many guys don't get stuck on
some of the slick schemes floating around. Personally,
Sue and I have most of jt pegged to go into our savings

to build a reserve. With money in the bank, we can plan
for the future ... or have ready cash for emergencies.
