It’s Hard to Lead The Life You Choose When All Your Luck’s Run Out on You
Hey folks!
It's okay to come on back now everyone, I'm fairly calm now. But Jesus H. Christ on a pogo-fucking-stick, if I haven't had a nerve-wracking past few days.
First off, as noted in my last post, no one should EVER use AmTrust Bank for ANYTHING. EVER!! (unless you don't WANT to ever see your money again, of course). Fuck, I know there's a recession going on back in the States, but that doesn't mean the bank can simply STEAL my goddamn money!!
Regardless, that's what having an extra stash in your bank account is for, right?
Umm … yeah, not so much.
That's not to say that, besides also having the typical low-level 'scamming' thing going on, the local guys over at the Family Losman next door were also great hosts (although their facilities aren't as extensive as Andy's), so don't believe anything bad you may hear about them either. They're a bit cheaper, and they've just got a less extensive hotel/losman (i.e., Andy's got A/C rooms, a TV room, etc.). It just depends on what you want to do and pay.
So I'm here at Karang Nyimbor for another couple weeks — it's still not crowded in the surf, and my stress level has been reduced exponentially regarding money, so everything's cool.
Granted, it would be nice if the surf picks up a bit … but for now, I'm just thankful for what I've got.
That’s what happens when you go to an ATM and withdraw only $20 at a time!. Get $300 F… buck and forget about the money issue for a month dude.
Hey, are you coming to the weeding?
take care
NOTE:
Weeding not Wedding
Man, that’s still better than my day at the office. I’ll trade ya places. BTW, the banks aren’t just keeping your money, they are down right running out. They’re all going belly up. You might be better off keeping it in the matress once you can afford to pay for a place. Hope all this info. helps.
