I aim to be like Ren Wo Xin in the dungeon, but leaning more towards Linghu Chong’s experience. April, May, June, maybe even July?
Eating rice and vegetables (maybe having “chicken and wine” on weekends?)
This will help me in my Abs target, so that Jim has motivation too.
I also feel inclined to practice the ancient shunamitism rites with an appropriate catalyst, but that might be difficult here, or it could even be easy! But using a contractor seems the best approach, and that will have to wait until I am back in the capital.
I am a H.E.NR.Y- high earner, not rich yet, and a S.I.N.K. though to be fair, I probably can get a concession on the N.K. part of things. Unlike poor Jim and Nikolai, those two are at the cusp of drowning in their own pools, despite having safeguards that would stave off any real danger (more Jim than Nikolai, though we can have some more sympathyfor the younger Nikolai). I plan to eventuate a sizeable cash gift to both in the coming times, with Taxmas being as good an opportunity as any, and better than most… in Jim’s case, I’ll “purchase” a debt, and in Nikolai’s case, I have a matter of personal honour to repatriate (a holiday that never came to pass).
Of course, I still need to cover my own bases, and support my own- 4 months is less than enough time to raise those funds as I would prefer, but my situation in 4 months will change much more favourably that ever. If only I could borrow more time, but I am hesitant to be in debt any longer due to the interest rates… once I am out, it is not easy street, as I should assist the family with their debts too, such as Ci-em’s car.
Part of me thinks that after this year, i should stop, but that’s not the right support for me, or from me either- I will proudly continue to pay until their independence!
Wow stylus can write , nvn it wasn’t what I expected. .
All this talk of money, how gauche- I already calculated that by the end of of the year, I am solvent. If I do not indulge too frequently in generosity, of course. I like my job, and I like making money to afford giving it away- it’s what I’ve known my entire life, and the Nobility in such a living is bitterly admirable.
