Serious Finance topic.
So I am trying to think of a serious engaging finance topic to start in my blog but this is all I can come up with. Everybody has a story in these times and it all boils down to "Ain't nothing going on but the rent"! So for the single and married women or those who have spouses, companions, partners, significant others, or whatever you want to call the relationship (business alliance comes to my mind, kind of like "Honey, what's in this for both of us"), it seems Gwen Guthrie's 1990's catchy song phrase: "No romance without finance. You gotta have a J.O.B. if you wanna be with me" still applies. LOL, enjoy the lyrics again:
Bill collectors at my door – what can you do for me-ee, oh
No romance without finance, no romance without finance
Boy, nothin’ in life is free-ee
That’s why I’m asking you, what can you do for me?
I’ve go-ot responsibilitie-ies
So I’m lookin’ for a man who’s got some money in his hand
‘Cause nothin’ from nothin’, lea-eaves a nothin’
You got to have somethin’ if you want to be with me
Oh-oh, life is just serious, lo-ove’s too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security
‘Cause ain’t nothin’ goin’ on but the rent
You got to have a J.O.B. if you want to be with me
Ain’t nothin’ goin’ on but the rent
You got to have a J.O.B. if you want to be with me
No romance without finance, I said no romance without finance
Boy, your silky words are swee-eet
But we’re only wastin’ time if your pockets are empty
I-I got lots of love to gi-ive
But I will have to avoid you if you’re unemployed
‘Cause nothin’ from nothin’, lea-eaves a nothin’
You got to have somethin’ if you want to be with me
Oh-oh, life is just serious, lo-ove’s too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security
‘Cause ain’t nothin’ goin’ on but the rent
You got to have a J.O.B. if you want to be with me
