Financial Mad Lib, Anyone?

What’s up, my sexy awesome dope money friends!

Today I’d like to present to you a rousing game of Financial Mad Libs! To a) help you avoid doing your work and b) better learn all your secrets!

Mad love to Full Time Finance who inspired this post by doing his own libbing last week, thereby shooting me down memory lane to dig up our own libs posed back in 2009.

How much has changed since then, I wondered? What would my answers look like today, I pondered?

Only one way to find out, I yelled internally! Here is the un-filled out Mad Lib from over 8 years ago below, and then under that you’ll find 2009’s J. Money answers, followed by 2017’s J. Money answers.

After that, it’s your turn to divulge!

J. Money 2009 Answers:

Hi my name is J. Money. I currently have 17 dollars in my wallet. When I started managing my finances I was worth $58,769.65, and now have a net worth of $95,149.11. I currently work for a start-up and have been doing it for 6 years. I make roughly $80,000 per year. I want to have $1 Million waiting for me when it comes time to retire. Aside from learning about finances, I really enjoy flying to new places. I think the world would be a better place if idiots didn’t exist. I had a chicken quesadilla for dinner last night and it was bar food. I have had 10 significant others over the course of my lifetime (counting awkward middle school relationships). One thing that makes me different is that I smell my food & drinks before I consume them. Now that I’m done with this mad lib, I think I’m going to get back to work before I get caught.

And Now, 2017’s J. Money’s Answers!

Hi my name is J. Money. I currently have $49.00 dollars in my wallet money clip. When I started managing my finances I was worth $58,769.65, and now have a net worth of $636,893.40. I currently work as a full-time blogger and have been doing it for 8 years. I make roughly $75,000-$150,000 per year (depending on how much I hustle). I want to have $1,500,000 waiting for me when it comes time to retire. Aside from learning about finances, I really enjoy taking walks with my two little boys. I think the world would be a better place if pot holes didn’t exist. I had mac & cheese for dinner last night and it was magnificent. I have had 10 significant others over the course of my lifetime (counting awkward middle school relationships). One thing that makes me different is that I’ve never tried any drugs outside of alcohol (not even marijuana). Now that I’m done with this mad lib, I think I’m going to try marijuana!!! ;)

A lot can change in 8 years! Unfortunately our comments got lost from a blog migration back in ’09 so I can’t tell if any of you are still here from around then, but go ahead and fill this out now and then we’ll come back in another 8 years to see what’s different!

Happy Monday!

(Boy that was a lot of annoying underlining…)
