Haven’t Made A Budget

I’m not surprised, my money goes fast
I’ve broken my bank so many times, I stopped keeping track
Tried to show off with a brand new TV
But we can’t even watch it without electricity

I tried so very hard to impress her
Because I wanted so badly to undress her
Just had to make her fall in love with me

All I have to do is make her think that I’m rich
And next thing I know I’ll get a date with that chick
I just need a car, I think I’ll go buy a Corvette
I just haven’t made a budget

I won’t have to wait, this much I know
Cause the interest is high but the payments are low
Add insurance and gas and it costs half what I make
But I’ll have it paid off in 2028

And I thought the car would be so amazing
But I realize this girl is gonna change me
Now I know how to make her fall in love with me

She wants a guy with a 401k
Diversified stocks in a Roth IRA
A good credit score, and zero credit card debt
She wants a guy with a budget

There goes my ‘Vette
I’ll buy a used Buick
And with the money I save
I’ll invest like the kids from etrade

And I know that we can be so incredible
When I have an impressive portfolio
With index funds, ETFs, small caps and REITs

And by the day that I turn 54
I’ll have $10 million or more
We’ll travel the world in my own private jet
Private jet, private jet, private jet

Oh, you know it’ll all be great
Even a Cosmo bachelor won’t get her on a date
‘Cause my 529 has college money for our kids
Yeah, I finally made a budget

Yeah, I finally made a budget
Yeah, I finally made a budget?

      Thanks J. Money. I really appreciate you sharing it with your community. Maybe one day I can add to your collection of “songs written exclusively for J. Money”. For those that haven’t heard J. Money’s rap:

      Let’s do it. When our forces combine it will be a tidal wave of personal finance musical force and it will be unstoppable!

    I just have to say again this is AWESOME! Whoooo hoo! Have tweeted it out. Hope you win an award! What’s the original song again?

    1. Kevin McKee

      Thanks Yakezie. The original song is Michael Buble’s “Haven’t Met You Yet”.

      Try not to listen to them back to back though. My voice sounds like a garbage disposal compared to Michael Buble. ๐Ÿ™‚

      Thanks. I can always use the publicity. I’m actually kinda upset this video isn’t my most popular post anymore. Thanks for helping it get back to the top.

    This is awesome. I love how the girl can see good financial sense and is more attracted to you because of it.

    Loved the story and the ideas!
