Financial Freak Show

I was walking out of Starbuck’s $4.00 lighter in the wallet, I noticed a new sexy black sedan next to me. Now those of you that know me know that I love black cars (notice that black is the one color that every car comes in). Also those of you that know me probably wouldn’t call me a sedan kind of guy. Though with the addition of our daughter a while back maybe my tastes have changed a bit. After I saw this car I now know for a fact I’m now a sedan guy, I’m not sure why….it may have been the safety and comfort of this particular car that changed my mind or more likely it was the shiny Maserati badge on the grill that got me all worked up.

Big and inexpressibly masculine, broad and low, with a rising rhythm from nose to tail and perfect isometric tension, the QP has a self-possession and – that makes its six-figure, four-door competitors – Mercedes-Benz AMG S-class, Audi S8, BMW 760Li – look like prison dentistry.

Any car that’s “inexpressibly masculine” and can make an AMG Mercedes-Benz S-class “look like prison dentistry” is okay in my book! With a selling price of only $130k that works out that I only need to save $71.23 a day…every stinking day for the next five years and that baby is mine. That’s going to take a bit more than cutting Starbucks out of the budget. But I guess it’s one more reason to keep my finances in order so someday my family will have a proper 440 horse power grocery-getter that will deliver us to McDonald’s Play Land at 177mph!

After catching a glimpse of the world of possibilities we live in today I approached my work with a refreshed attitude and drive. So aside from a good street fight what gets your blood going?  Cars? Boats? Charity work? Respect in your field? A sweet vacation? Ladies of the night? 

Comment on why you get up in the morning and decide to put up another fight for another day.
