how quickly we spend our money

I started a part-time law clerk position last week that pays $8 an hour. Yeah, totally doing it for the experience, but then again, $8 an hour is a whole lot more than being paid nothing at all.


This part-time job requires me to work on Saturday mornings. So yesterday, I reported for work at 9am and was finished at noon. The bossman paid me in cash for the day -- twenty five whole smackers!


To celebrate my first paycheck since starting law school, I decided to treat a couple of friends to cheesecake. Tiramisu, White Chocolate Coconut and Banana.


It took me 3 hours of work to earn $25. It took me only five seconds to spend it. Cheesecake was so yummy it was worth the hard work.
