Good news, Bounce. Hard work pays off.... good to hear... maybe deal in the mortgage, family and the BC fund ... all if you can. If you can't do all three in doubt, I'm sure you'll make the right choice between the mortgage and the family.

On second thought, you used the term, "I 'WON' the contract." LOL. You should gamble it all.

Screw Geico. Actually I will lose money the 1st 17 months. But I will make money the last 31 months to off-set the losss I will take in the first 17 months.

And thanks for all the congrats.

CONGRATS........... Pay the mortgage, it's the best thing a working stiff can do besides raising your kids.

YOU DID'NT WIN THE CONTRACT. YOUR ARE THE BEST AT SERVICING ANY DAMN POTATO CHIP TRUCK THEY THROW AT YOU. THE TRUCK MAY HAVE HORRIBLE INTERNAL DAMAGE TO THE STORAGE AREA. FAT MAY BE STUCK ALL OVER THE INSIDES OF THAT TRUCK, BUT YOU CAN REMOVE THAT FAT BETTER THAN ANY.

win the contract... Your the best with the lowest price. This is America dammit.

congrats. sorry. I have been eating too much icecream (fatfree)

Next flight to Vegas if it were me, buy into the World Series of Poker.....90% of those people in that tourney are not GAMBLERS. Horse players have the BEST GAMBLING experience of all time, we feel the rush every 15 minutes, 10 times a day times 4 tracks a day, we have experienced 10 times what the online poker player has experienced, remember that the next time you are playing some hold em. Horse players make GREAT card players, unless you are GPK.....your horse flying down the lane beats BULLETS in the hole ANY DAY OF THE WEEK

Congrats Euro. Here's what to do. Take the money - hit the pick 6 on BC day - then spend it on the family

I am an ice cream lover myself. Breyers or Graeters for me. But I am far from the cheapest. But I think I am the cheapest that is open Saturday and Sunday's. Most of the dirvers have one of those days off so that is a good time for them to come in. Most people don't know, but the drivers have to pay for the trucks. Some are like independent contractors. But if you get a good route (say a large grocery store or two) you can pull down anywhere from $80k to $100k.
