Well at first I thought I was crazy for considering Chicago, but now it really sounds promising. I’ve been actually working with a loan partner so I can get approved for a loan which will pay 100% financing for a mortgage! I have never owned my own home before… but apparently my credit is FINALLY so good that I don’t even have to put any money down! Isn’t that fantastic!?! Right now I just have to prove my assets, income, etc. which is taking a while since I’m self-employed. This is a dream come true!
I remember sitting in my room when I was 12 years old, crying because life sucked. I was broke, poor as hell, not old enough to get a job, lived in a shitty house in the ghetto, and was reading a magazine that had a picture of a celebrity’s home. I’m not sure which celebrity it was. But I remember his home. I remember his penthouse view of the city at night, overlooking this glorious city skyline. And from that moment on, I wanted that. I wanted his life. To make money. To have a condo in the city with a penthouse view. I wanted that so much. It gave me hope. I was a little jealous, but more hopeful than anything. My father said I’d never make that kind of money to afford something like that (my dad worked at Wal-Mart for 12 years so that’s where he was coming from). And my mother told me only doctors and lawyers could afford a place like that.
And now….
I can have one of my own. A big one. A penthouse condo in a skyscraper just like the ones from the magazines, overlooking the city just like I always dreamed. In Chicago, my money is worth more than it is here, so I can have more space, more square footage, and live in a better neighborhood.
This little fantasy world is turning into reality, slowly but surely. Who knows… perhaps in a few months time I’ll be in a whole ‘nother state. I love California and I’ll definitely visit all the time, but I’m bored.
Love

P.S. Wow… I just released “Sweet Release” this morning and already I’ve sold soooo many of them that it just paid TWO months worth of rent! Holy crap… I knew it was good, but not THAT good. Everyone is writing me saying it’s the best recording they’ve ever heard. Wow. I guess I should do more like that one, huh?
