Burn Rate
According to that IM conversation, I’m one of the highest paid in our little company. I don’t make that much money. It’s hard to believe. In any case, we just got paid so I just went to my bank and credit card accounts online to make payments. I added them up. I’m over $3K in debt. None of that money has gone to clothes, furniture, entertainment…nothing except crack, three books, and a thimble for my mother on mother’s day. Three thou may not be the world’s all-time drug debt—it strikes me as very little, in fact—but relative to what I make, how much rent I pay (very little, relatively, renting a mouse-infested room from an Israeli guy as I do), and the time it took to accrue—few weeks—damn. It represents a decent burn rate.
