Oh, this is good and very timely. We've all felt like this lately! You did a great job of capturing that sinking feeling and giving new meaning to 'cash flow'... Good luck.

Oh, very good. There isn't much cash to flow anymore, sad to say. This is an excellently thoughtful contest entry. Best of luck to you. Blessings, Linda

You probably should send this to all professional athletes as it seems most of them have this problem after they retire. It's likely due to their trusting the wrong people or their inability to do math. good luck in the contest.

You are SO right! Actually, I met and spoke with Mike Tyson for a long while. I lived in Scottsdale and just happened to be somewhere he was. We spoke awhile. God..he had millions and his money managers, friends, et al just ripped him off big time. Now, I know he had to have blown tons himself with all the trouble he got into. But, it does seem to be the same theme with so many of the athletes. And other people who really believe they can't spend millions! HA! Thanks for your great review. Regards, Sue

cash flow - liquidity, the money just flowed right out of your wallet - very funny and so well illustrated -good epigram form - short and pithy, satiric ending - sounds like a strong contender to me

I bet your hubby has it..HAHA, he's down the boozer, just like Homer. The Simpsons makes all brit kids think that they're the model American family. I wouldn't have believed it, but after a couple of years working over there.HAHA

Clever graphic to go with the Penn.
You have a book-keeper. We just call them libraries...

You just go ahead and laugh at the Yanks down at the boozer! We ain't got nuttin' on you Brits down at the pub, mate! HA!!! And talking about "the wife". LMAO!! Yeah, the hubby thinks he's kind of the castle, and the pub is the only place where they can all talk about their throne. But each one REALLY knows who rules the roost. (the brits and the yanks). Poor Homer...he does try to find his man-hood. When I come over to England, we're going to have to sit down and have a pint and laugh our bums off! :-)) Sue
