 At the risk of being nauseating, I'm pretty happy at the moment.
	At the risk of being nauseating, I'm pretty happy at the moment.I've a job that teaches me new things and seems willing to invest plenty of time and effort in me with the promise of further training and development to come. I've an increasingly professionally successful girlfriend who, despite my frequent protestations, appears quite happy to look after me in a way that I'm quite certain I don't deserve (and the girls at work are in full agreement with me on this)and asks for nothing in return.
Obviously absolutely nothing is exactly what she gets, the bitch, what does she think I am, some sort of queer?
I have very little to complain about and so am forced to pursue increasingly petty vendettas in order to remain in my miserable cunt comfort zone.
As for financial tips, I'm hopeless. I don't have any. I defer to my girlfriend in all matters of finance.
