So what I, I Venmo, I Venmoed her 160 because I was thinking at the very least she would have had to pay 70 bucks to dispose of the cat's body, right? Like you have to, you have to pay something for the vet to properly dispose of the animal. And so she would have had to pay 70. So I, so I decided to pay the remainder of it. God, this is awful. I guess maybe this is an insight into how cheap I am.

But it's really like the sticker shock of seeing the 230. And I was like, hold on. I don't remember. I don't really remember agreeing to this. Jesus Christ.

My wife's dad actually Venmoed us half of our flight to visit them in Florida. So it was like 420 bucks because he's just super generous and he always likes to do things like that. It's quite humbling actually to have him be that generous in, in certain ways because, um, there's, there's, there's no aspect of my life now that I don't owe to my father-in-law, which is pretty crazy to think about.

Um, because I've worked pretty hard in a lot of ways. Like I've had a lot of side jobs and I've been like very dedicated to the academy and it was like working towards this professorship and, um, doing anything I can on the side to like make money and save money and pay off student loans and whatever. Um, it's amounted to nothing, like literally like fucking zero.

Um, you know, I think the biggest, like the largest that my checking account ever was, um, Um, before I married my wife was after, um, after I got hit by a drunk driver and I got an insurance settlement for like 12 grand. I don't even remember how much it was now. And so like at some point in my checking account, I had like $15,000 and I was like, damn Bruce Wayne.

Like I'm just really killing it right now. Maybe I'll be a venture capitalist now. And then when my wife and I went to get married, her father cut us. He gave us an option, actually. He said, look, I'll pay for your wedding outright. Pay for whatever you want. Or I'll cut you a check for $30,000. And we were like, we'll take option B, Bob. Like, shit.

It's not upsetting. It's not upsetting to think that, like, the amount of effort I put into, like, being fiscally responsible and independent and stuff, um... has amounted to basically nothing in comparison with like two checks this family has written. I mean, I guess it is upsetting. It is upsetting in a way. You know, this was completely out of reach for me five years ago. 10 years ago.
