$10 annually? Come on McK, we all know you can afford to do better than that...

Ha I set up a recurring annual contribution of $10 which is worth not getting those annoying calls.

My school still owes me a $200 reimbursement for fronting another club member's flight. On principle, I refuse to donate a dime until that debt is honored

^Mck, I love that. It's awkward telling them no when they catch you on the phone. So i assume they take your name off the auto dial list if you enlist for any amount

Is there a reason why they target recent grads more? Or it feels that way at least.

Tell them you'll give a $ for every dollar they write-off from your student loan debt

How To Be Productive when Your Job Is Boring

I’m losing my damn mind at my job. I’m 23 years old and I’m a very ambitious, hard working individual but my job is literally so boring, I feel that all of my habits and skills are slowly deteriorating. I mean I do nothing all day, most days.

Im tired all the time, I can’t think of anything to do. I try to watch educational videos/pods, but there’s only so much. Any advice on how to fill in the time in a productive and entertaining manner?
