I’m tagging along the latest trend in the personal finance world this week – started by the Debt Ninja over at Punch Debt In The Face – it’s the Personal Finance Mad Lib! And it goes a little something like this…
Hi my name is Carrie! I currently have 50 cents in my wallet. When I started managing my finances I was worth not sure!, and now have a net worth of $42,000. I currently work as an accountant and have been doing it for 5 years. I make roughly $72,000 per year. I want to have about $3 million waiting for me when it comes time to retire. Aside from learning about finances, I really enjoy exercising, going to the pool, summer, friends, drinks, food, Lloyd, vacations! I think the world would be a better place if terrorists didn’t exist. I had popcorn & an energy bar LOL for dinner last night and it was carb-alicious. I have had 3-ish significant others over the course of my lifetime (counting awkward middle school relationships). One thing that makes me different is I’m no nonsense and I don’t have a problem saying “No” to people. Now that I’m done with this mad lib, I think I’m going to eat something!
Great idea, Debt Ninja!
So fun – try it yourself:
