Day 15- $15,000

Today the $1500 will go to Urban Gleaners who come and pick up edible food items that are being thrown out at restaurants and supermarkets.

I think that I will take the remaining $13,500 and use it as a down payment on one the of $135,000 houses that Trevor and I have been looking at. OWN MY OWN HOME: SUCCESS!!! Payments are very close to what we are paying in rent right now.
