pay day never comes

pay day never comes

fiction

Why is there no surgery to implant the gene that enables one to save money every pay day for their entire life into our breast so we would always have a positive net worth and lots of security?

Tomorrow is payday and already most of the money is owed out for bills and obligations. It's getting so we can hardly keep up with our bad habits anymore.

Sometimes our security is the ability to face another day with a smile. Pay day never comes. That big bonanza we are always waiting for is so elusive.

No matter. True, hope is not an investment strategy but it keeps the old heart pumping for another month. Until the next social security check comes in the mail.
