Sweat equity. Bust my arse.

If I didn't work @ the shop, I wouldn't have 75% of what I do. He keeps a running tab for me, which I try VERY hard to keep under $200 at all times. Which isn't really difficult. I sell old stuff to pay for new, I cut grass in the summer....shoot, I even walk the ditches picking up aluminum cans to recycle. Now and then I hit it big and find a bunch of copper. Odd jobs, whatever it takes. The biggest is .......DON'T SPEND every 10 dollar bill you make here and there on soda and lunch. I have a drawer in my desk @ work I put it in. I work in BFE, so I can't spend it there anyway. And, if it's in my desk......I can't spend it when I get home. Next thing ya know there's 2 or 300 bucks in there.....HELLO SCENTLOK FULL SEASON!! WHOOHOOOO!!!!

If you want it badly enough......there IS a way to do it. But you can't be afraid to work for it. Nothin's free in this world. The Hoyt dealer is not gonna show up @ your door and say Here, have this brand new Katera on us. Easton won't bang down your door to lavish you w/ arrows. You gotta earn it. It's called sweat. And it's good for ya.
