Money



Here's last week's Free Will Astrology that really got me thinking about money.

"The average middle class person alive today has more goodies than the kings and queens of times past. In fact, even during this time of economic retrenchment, most of us have a higher standard of living than 99 percent of all the humans who've ever walked the planet. In pointing this out, I don't mean to discount the suffering of those who've lost their jobs and homes. But I think it's helpful to keep our collective deprivations in perspective. Similarly, I like to remember that no matter how much our personal trials may test us, they are more bearable than, say, the tribulations of the generation that lived through the Great Depression and World War II. Keep this in mind, Sagittarius. As you wander in the limbo between the end of one chapter of your life story and the beginning of the next chapter, it'll really help to stay conscious of how blessed you are.

Our second car loan will be paid off in a couple months and I have been planning on snowballing that extra money with the just-paid-of- student-loan money (finally!) to get out of debt. I was getting greedy and wanting a bigger house and more room for my stuff, but then I remembered I'd rather have more time, less debt and less stuff.

Here's to paying down credit cards and keeping cars forever!
