All the extra work
I know it won't last forever
I'm just trying to keep my hours up while I can
Right now i'm pulling in 600+900+130 1630 a month
I need to keep that up as long as I possibly can
Rent 600 Bills 70 Supervision 60 Court 50
1630 - 780 = $850 take home each month that I can spend on anything
850$ - 130 = $720 that's what I actually make in cash each month
$720*3 = $2,160 meaning if I can keep this up for 3 month i'll reach my goal of 2k
I want to pay off court costs asap
but I'm watching the texas thca law closer than anything else
depending on what we find out at the end of this 30 day session
I may spend all I have saved up on flower and just store it until I get off supervision
because I may not have another chance
Now I do believe sb5 is going to fail but it may not
It is exactly the same as sb3 and that failed just a month ago
Only time will tell
I have 2 days left of community service
and I have 5 days left of anger management
community service will be on tuesday and wednesday will be my final day
anger management is only on mondays so I still have to wait quite a long time for 5 mondays
I'm staying busy working everyday
I'm trying to not spend any money period
because I do want to buy everything on my list
my list totals around $6k
and if I can keep my current work schedule that totals out to about 9 months of work
which I highly doubt i'll be able to keep my current hours for 9 whole months
maybe if the new maintenance guy hates the job or the pay and quits then i'm back on
that could happen I have no idea and cannot see in any way so we'll also find that out in time
I only have about $600 saved up right now next payday is 2 weeks away and that'll put me at around $900 next payday i'll be at $1,200 and when I get my end of the month check I'll be at $1,300
moving on to September $1,600 $1,900 then end of the month i'll be at $2,000
$2,000 is the limit on how much money I can hold so i'll be forced to spend and I should before then
September is usually when laws get actually turned on in Texas so I may be buying a little bud as soon as August gets here
I would really like to wait until the end of the 30 day session and see what actually happens if the things get passed or vetoed as soon as that information comes out I'm either going to buy or wait
essentially if it does pass I'm going to spend all I have to buy
if it does not pass I'm going to hold my money, pay off court costs first, then buy later in the year
flower is like most commodities they do usually go bad after time and I do not want to hold on to something for 2 years that I should be buying daily
But if that is my only option then i'll take it
if it does get banned of course I would like to buy 10 pounds and store it
but obviously I do not have the money to do that
I could easily buy 10 pounds over 2 years if it does not get banned
Which I do think about
if I just decided to not buy all the things on my list and went for raw quantity saving every dollar and spending it all on flower and I know for a fact I would be happy doing that lol
3 months = 2,000, 19 months total 19/3 6.3 or just 720*19 13,680 /600 22.8 that's 22 pounds I could buy if I only spend my money on flower which is very realistic as all I have done is save and spend money on supervision for the past several months
22 pounds is a lot I'm not even sure if I could fit it in my apartment without throwing more stuff out
which I am sure I would in fact need to throw more stuff out
which going into this special session was what I was actually afraid of Texas putting a limit on how much thca a person can hold considering there is no limit currently
Now i'm having to worry about an all out ban
at 3 ounces a month a 16 ounce pound will last over 5 months at 20 pounds that's 106 months or almost 9 years lol
meaning in the next 2 years I could buy enough bud to last me 9 years lol
I've never directly sold bud and I never plan on selling bud that would all be for me personally
and if i'm willing to buy enough for 9 years it's going to have to last 9 years
so maybe I shouldn't worry so much about buying it and having to save it for 2 years hahah
above is basically all I have going on
2 days of cs, 5 days of am, deciding if I want to pay cc first or buy flower first depending on which way Texas goes with thca
if I bought 9 years worth of bud and I lost my job and ended up just living off my ssi
I think I would actually enjoy my life more than I ever have before
I honestly think I would refuse a job lol
I could have 20 pounds 9 years worth of flower no job getting ssi for having schizophrenia
no job wake n bake everyday smoke all day every day
code ff11 programs watch youtube
I honestly cannot think of a happier situation
definitely makes me reconsider my list
It isn't like I can keep saving my money and just have $20,000 one day literally the most money I can hold is $2,000 and while I think that is completely stupid it is the truth about my situation
so. . . if I'm making $2k every 3 months
I have all my household items, toiletries, food, rent, bills all paid for
what am I actually going to spend this money on
donating to charities, buying tokens to spend on strippers, buying MORE food definitely more food than I need, It isn't like I can invest it in bitcoins or stocks they count all that in the $2,000
buying flower lots of flower is basically the only option I can think of that's actually a good one for me
I could buy all the subs in the world I could invest in advertising for my youtube and websites I don't really see that as being a good thing right now
maybe in a few years 3+ not right now
what I planned on from the beginning was building up 2k paying off court costs
setting 1k to the side building back up to 2k and each time I made it to 2k spending about 1k on stuff on my list never dropping below 1k
taking $60 each month from that 1k and paying my supervision fee until the end of supervision where I would be able to spend the full 2k if I wanted to
$2k is such a low number my economics teacher told me to set aside $800 for an emergency then I have $600 for rent that leaves me with $600 that I could actually have to spend not to make $600 seem small but I mean I literally could not have more than that lol
I'll never be able to buy another car or truck I'll never be able to buy a house anything more than 1k i'll never be able to buy
and I could be able to get around that if I went to work with my dad but I'll have to move to a bigger city and i'll be traveling all over the states and I don't want to do that worst of all I can't drink or smoke that's a big no from me
That's all that I have on my mind basically the same thing that's been on my mind for 2 weeks
next supervision appointment is on the 4th I'm going to discuss time served and early release from good behavior
I feel I should quality for early release since I do security and maintenance and not being able to go to work after 9pm or 10pm hurts me financially and slows the workplace down I'm 4 mins walking distance from the hotel the night clerk is on a walker and sometimes they need me
not to mention I have finished cs in record time I'm going to complete am on schedule I haven't got any other charges I show up on time every appointment I'm going to pay off cc way before the scheduled time I work a fulltime job I pay my rent and bills on time
Basically i'm doing everything perfect if they will allow me an early release
that cuts 6 months off so I would finish in 1 year 2026 not 2 years 2027
14 months from august so october or november 2026 instead of may 2027
obviously I'm definitely not going to say because I need to smoke for my illness that won't get anywhere
but I think the work thing has a chance
6 month isn't that bad so if it doesn't work out I guess I can wait another 6 months it'll have already been over 3 years by that time with only 6 months to go
anyways this post is getting long and I can't expect anyone to read besides upbe4t.com diehards and bookworms
