The 401(k) blues

March 6th, 2009 at 04:03 pm

(dum dum dum dum)
I upped my monay.
(dum dum dum dum)
In my 401(k).
(dum dum dum dum)
Livin' off my cash onlay.
(dum dum dum dum)
Eatin' PB & jellay.

(dum dum dum dum)
Then mah monay gone away!
(dum dum dum dum)
Turned down my 401(k)!
(dum dum dum dum)
Sent me a letter sayin' OK!
(dum dum dum dum)
But my paychecks still screwway!

(dum dum dum dum)
So I'm still broke as a babay!
(dum dum dum dum)
Eatin' PB & jellay!
(dum dum dum dum)
It might taste kinda yummay!
But I still got
the
401(k)
blues!

    LOL! I can hear this in my head! Mr H says that if you use different kinds of jelly you then have variety in your diet. (He says that about himself, don't know if it's applicable across the board.) Hope you can get things fixed soon!

    Who is this Mr. H, and his sick sense of humor about having "variety" in your diet through different kinds of jellay! Big Grin

    Mr H would be my husband. That's what I'm calling him here in blog land. Should I tell on him? He eats peanut butter and jelly every day for lunch. Every day. Occasionally I'll pack a ham sandwich for him - also on his "okay" list - but I usually get some kind of reaction about it. On the flip side, it does help keep some food costs predictable. We buy peanut butter by the case.

    It's like Petunia said, I sang your wording in my head. It cracked me up.

    I like p& b with Honey, with Orange marmalade, bananas. My brother likes to add dill pickles to his P&B sandwich.

    Poor BA! Glad to see you can hang on to your sense of humor about it! I was watching some doom and gloomer yesterday who said the market is going to get down to 1000. This is a new world we are embarking into!

    I'm enjoying what's left of apricot and strawberry jam, but I also have grape. There's only one kind of peanut butter I like: Honey flavored and creamy only.

    Sorry BA but I was laughing out loud at this. Smile You should see if you can come up with a tune for it on the guitar and record it for all of us. Big Grin

    Lol! Just reading that, even I as a deaf person can "hear" that song in my mind! What a bummer! At least you know how to frugally keep going when something likes this happens.
