Financial Mad Lib – Only 17 Months Late!

You can find anything on Google!

Christmas is getting super close and I’m not feelin’ anything serious today. I was creeping on reading one of my favorite finance blogs – Budgets Are Sexy (yeah they are!) – when I came across this Financial Mad Lib post. I’d be a horrible blogger if I didn’t mention that Ninja from Punch Debt in the Face came up with this cool idea! I might be 17 months late, but I’m still gonna participate! Here’s mine:

Financial Mad Lib: RYAN

Hi my name is Ryan . I currently have ZERO dollars in my wallet. When I started managing my finances I was worth $1,653, and now have a net worth of -$161. I currently work for a major clothing retailer and have been doing it for (2 (on and off)) years. I make roughly $6,000 per year. I want to have 5 million waiting for me when it comes time to retire. Aside from learning about finances, I really enjoy traveling. Anywhere. I think the world would be a better place if stubbing your toe didn’t exist. I had chicken/baked potato/rice for dinner last night and it was pretty damn good. I have had 1 significant others over the course of my lifetime (counting awkward middle school relationships). One thing that makes me different is I can run 40 miles a week and love it. Now that I’m done with this mad lib, I think I’m going to do some more blogging stuff.

Pretty sweet huh?

I don’t want to hog all the fun though – if you’d like to crank out your own literary masterpiece, just use the template below:
