Coincidentally, Junior called this morning to say thanks for footing the bill and hopefully we won't have to this time next years. We pay for the kids' health and car insurance, mainly so we won't be stuck with a huge bill one day (knock on wood). We also pay for college tuition but nothing else. If they want to live in a ritzy apartment, eat lobster and party, then they do it on their dime.

I paid my own car insurance, and considering my high school driving record, damn, it was expensive. $220 a month in 1985. Now adjust that for inflation. Fortunately, I finally learned how to drive like a mature adult.
