Well, it seems like after all this time, after a year and a half of waiting, HL2 is finally being released....for real. Unfortunately I find myself in a depressing situation, I don't have enough money to buy it......ouch.

I was planning on the gold steam package, but when you're in college sometimes certain expenses come up that you can't avoid. I'm in between jobs at the moment so I literally don't have any money to spare.

This isn't a "please give me money" thread, I was just curious if anyone was in the same situation as myself.
 
Im not actually. well i might b when i buy that new City-17 Alienware lol.
 
That sucks, I recently got a job(fast food restaurant) so I'm rich as ****.
 
No...I'm a little short of funds BECAUSE of Half-Life 2. I bought it around the time they announced the release date, and I just bought Raising the Bar. I have ten dollars. Total.

Yeah. I dropped.....a lot of money on HL2. I'm not buying anything for a month, I swear.
 
I spent $187.29 on HL2...I still have a little money though since I have a good job.
 
just need some money for raising the bar :)

EDIT: woo im a prowler :D
 
I'm getting paid $310 on Tuesday. Yeah, you could say that I have the sufficient funds. :p

Lol, been there, done what. Man it's a blast to live on 10 dollars for a week or two. =)

Beef and Chicken are the best ones.
 
I'm 20 dollars and somone that is above 17 years of age away from getting it.
 
Well the bitches where i work didnt pay me last month, so i cant afford it myself. Luckily however, my sister lent me £20, and hopefully momma'll give me £15 this week, so i should still be able to buy it, but possibly i'll have to walk to college everyday and whatever.
 
Got more than enough...thank god for saving money for inbetween pay checks LOL.

I was so close to being in that situation; I'm starting to think no one want's to hire me, but I'm lucky, I have an angel with deep pockets and a guilty conscience
 
Already purchased HL2 Gold, computer, etc. And I'm getting paid $400+ on Wednesday or Thursday.

So yeah..

Well, nobody want's to hire me either. Can I borrow your angel? =)
 
I purchased silver when i was flat broke, borrowed some money off my brother. I had to play cs-s and he understood :cheese:

Now i've got a job, and it's just a matter of time that i have to pay him back.

no chance, man, for some unknown reason she's decided to stick with me. But yeah, I'm gonna owe her big when I finally get gainfully employed.
