[HPFGU-OTChatter]saving for important things (was Gah! *slaps hands*

[spinelli372003]

I had to laugh when I read the post about saving money instead of 
spending it.  I am currently in possession of $200 of my bosses 
money.  She owns a small Greek Cafe where I work 2 nights a week.  
She has a bad addiction to the River Boat. (she gambles as often as 
she can lol) so on some nights she gives me money and says hold it 
till the day I put the deposit in.  So I hold it till she is ready to 
go to the bank.  That way she doesnt spend it
