Okay, let’s break down why January 2010 was the most expensive month of my life. 

  1. When the person you love the most come with an outstretched hand, you give…to the tune of $15,000.
  2. There’s a First Time for Everything…Including Towing.  Stupid decision to park at my friend’s apartment cost me $100 and a 3:00 a.m. trip to go pick up my car from Alexandria, Va. 
  3. That last law school tuition even after the scholarship hurts.  Badly. 
  4. Way more driving…Gas was up due to my drive from home and because I am driving more because of my externship.
  5. First dinner party resulted in Craigslist purchases of a cutlery set, salad bowl with tongs, dinner plate set, and some unrelated things like an Anne Klein coat!

 How was the first month of the year for you?  Do you think I can repair from the damage I’ve done to my networth?
