I walked out of the bank, stunned. Twenty thousand dollars! I said to myself in a surprisingly loud internal voice. I’ve had that much money over the course of my forty years on this planet but, never all at once. It was both mind blowing and mind numbing at the same time. What was I going to do with this newly acquired inheritance? Even though I have been living paycheck to paycheck since I was sixteen, I knew that twenty thousand dollars is not exactly life changing. It can be, however, course altering. This was not the time for big plans. I had new money and I intended to spend some of it, at least, without the fear of consequences.
