    If I were to move from the SF Bay Area Denver, or rather, Golden, is where I'd move :) I love it there.

    BTW my sister is an Aggie (Texas A&M Vet school grad)

    :laughcry: :lol: :hehe: :laughy:

    Ahem...sorry. Funniest thing I've read all day :D Until you do make a move, I would make it a point to learn how to budget and save your money. Also, get used to not being able to buy anything but the bare necessities for a while because all of your cash will be going to bills and moving expenses.

    lol thats why im hopiing i will be able to put one pay check a month into my savings, i dont think that will be a reality with my current bills but at least half of each paycheck *get paid twice a week* and with the whole budge thing, thats where my tank comes in, a lot of my money goes into the tank and that's why my c.c. is as high as it is, i really want to get more corals and fish, but if i know im going to be selling it i dont know if it would be worth puting any more money into it besides buying water and food

    Before you even consider moving, pay off your credit card then shred that sucker. One of my BIGGEST mistakes when I was your age was charging everything that I couldn't cover with my paychecks, especially groceries. It took me YEARS to pay off that debt.

    Yes, make suree to get rid of all your debt. You do not want to get into a horrible situation! Plus you need good credit to get a lease anywhere.
