If I had $100,000 free and clear, taxes all paid, just to spend on pony things I would:
1. Set aside some for Mollie's boarding/bills/future emergencies $30,000
Totally lame and un-exciting but there are just so many expenses that come with horses I would hate to even figure out how quickly this money would be burnt through. It would be nice to have a little stash set aside though to use for a while.
2. Invest in a foal/youngster to start myself and train just the way I want. $20,000
Requirements:
- Filly (girls only club)
- German Riding Pony (or some other similar pony suited for dressage)
you shall do |
3. A Macel Samba saddle for the horses and myself. $4,000
A friend of mine rides in one, and I wants. That is all.
4. Lessons, Clinics, and Showing $20,000
Again, I shudder to think about how quickly I could blow through twenty grand on lessons and further education but I seriously love lessons. I have so much to learn and want to learn it all!! Being an adult I seriously miss the weekly lessons I had as a kid which were financed by financially stable adults. Now that the responsibility to pay for lessons falls on me they're few and far between.
5. Shopping spree for the Horse $13,000
Items include but are not limited to:
- All new blankies (because right now hers are old... god forbid)
- A fancy pants double bridle instead of the one I currently use that I put together from two snaffle bridles.
- All the BoT products her highness desires/needs... but mostly desires.
6. Shopping spree for Myself $13,000
Items include but are not limited to:
- All the full seat britches I can find/that fit me
- Konig dress boots
- Samshield helmet
And that is how I spend allllllll da monies.
bye bye monies
ReplyDeletetoo bad they're imaginary monies
DeleteI almost did the "board for x years " but figured I should be a little more fun. And just stashed the emergency money in other places haha. :)
ReplyDeletelol I know it was a lame one but the idea of a pre-paid year of board, farrier, vet, etc., bills would be heavenly.
