The past few weeks my main interest has been learning about investing; WoW hasn't been on my radar much. I guess that's a good thing?<br /><br />Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad to know there are others out there like me, working toward the same lofty-yet-attainable goals. It's cool hearing from you :)Mustachian Acolytehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07084560871262302396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538734877165581694.post-83129178048464185152012-01-04T09:53:32.512-08:002012-01-04T09:53:32.512-08:00have always felt that December is the most challen...have always felt that December is the most challenging month to stay smart financially. The rest of the year I seem to be my "frugal zone", but as soon as I step out of it, the month turns into a big free for all.<br /> I'm on a similar journey as you and enjoy reading your progress.<br /> You probably did better than if you hadn't started developing your frugality muscle.<br /> I too, play WoW. For me, the dollar per hour expense of the entertainment it provides is well worth it. (Yes I still have RL friends I spend time with, and yes, I can walk away from playing for weeks at a time so I'm pretty sure I'm not addicted).<br /><br /> Great job so far!! Hope you keep it up!!<br /><br /> January 4, 2012 9:47 AMSheryl C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09293613380338917890noreply@blogger.com
