Sadi Who?

I think I have ADHD. I was all excited about my blog earlier this year, but since purchasing my investment property in June, and working on a huge project at work . . . I disappeared. I owe all of my loyal readers an apology. There is so much to update, that I’m not even sure where to begin.

Highlights:
I purchased an income producing triplex in Philadelphia in June. Closing was okay, but I ended up having to sue my title company to return the overage amount from my cashiers check. They returned it without me having to show up in small claims court. Problem solved.

I got a huge raise at work this June bringing my total base salary from $47,000 to $52,000. My employer appreciated my hard work, in the previous year, and rewarded me for it. It couldn’t be better. Well, it could be better, but I'm certainly not complaining.

Lowlights:
I turned 25 and the Social Security Administration sent me a letter telling me that I would get about $1100 (in today’s dollars) if I retired at age 67. Yeah, if it’s even around then! I reminded myself I need to step it up and make sure that my savings will cover me when it’s time.

I now have some credit card bills, they’re mostly due to my tuition at school, and a small amount from my offline business. Since I usually pay off my credit card bills every month, this is not a good thing. I don’t even want to talk numbers. I know, I know. I’m working on getting those paid.

I am probably not going to be able to max out my Roth IRA until next year, after my credit card bill gets paid.

As I am taking three graduate courses this semester, I am not going to be updating this as often as I hope. But more than I did this summer.

That I promise.
