Wa-wa-wee-wa!

Man, the best thing about my show going to air is that I can finally talk about it! It's been the most frustrating two months ever!

Although it was ages ago I filmed it, it's still sinking in just how much money I now have. It's pretty crazy to go from having $7 in the bank to $98 007! Although thats not actually true, as I won't get the money for another month now, by which time I may have less than $7!

I haven't completely sorted out what I want to do with it all yet, apart from a few grand to pay off some debts and the $20 000 I'm giving away-half overseas and half here. Initially I was just gonna donate that straight off to a couple charities/people, but am thinking I might invest it and gradually give away a grand or two a year, and possibly end up giving away like 30-40 grand, which I'm pretty excited about.

Am off to see a mate who's a financial planner, so hopefully he'll help me sort it all out. Will prob end up investing a fair chunk of it for now, and see what comes up down the track.

The thing I'm most keen on is not letting this really change the way I live my life. Sure there's gonna be a couple more things I'm able to buy, but I've got plenty of people around me who'll be telling me if I'm spending it like a tool.

I've always been really coomiited to the whole living simply thing, which has always been easy enough, as I've always had no real choice, but I can see it's gonna get a whole lot harder now. But a good problem to have.

It will be very weird though everybody I know knowing how much money I have. Very interesting indeed. Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed me making a fool of myself last night-cos that was why I went on!
