I spent like a drunken sailor in May. Some of that was pre-paying expenses, but there was some stupidity mixed in for good measure.
- Spending on food was okay because I worked 25 days in May. I am usually reimbursed for food when I'm on the road.
- It's later than it should be, but I made an estimated tax payment to the IRS for the first quarter of 2025.
- I mentioned last month about the major changes I'm making to my healthcare. In May I paid for 12 months access to my concierge primary care doctor.
- I prepaid for several months of home internet.
Fun
We love adventures. Spending on experiences makes us better humans.
- I foolishly went on a binge on Chumba Casino playing blackjack and lost a lot of money. When you lose 9 out of 10 hands playing perfect strategy you start to question whether the game is rigged.
- I pay for two AMC A-List subscriptions each month.
