To my favorite family member in the galaxy...
I hope this card finds you well. I heard you just graduated college. Congratulations, kid! I wish you luck finding a job. I know times ain't the greatest right now and the economy's in tough shape. But, you're smart and I know you'll pull through.
Your mom & dad might have told you that I've decided to sign on with the UAC Space Marines on Mars. I'll be manning the outpost on Phobos, which should be a total cake walk. Nothing exciting ever happens on Phobos.
Your parents may have also told you I've got an old solar sail freighter tucked away in storage from my time with the merchant fleet. She's not big, but she's a good ship.
I'll be on deployment for two years with an option to re-up if things work out. While I'm gone, the freighter is yours. Last I checked, there were still about twenty crates of electronics in the hold. Maybe you can sell some of it and pay off your student loan.
Speaking of dinero, kid, look inside the envelope. I slipped a ten spot in there for you. It's not a lot, but maybe you can buy yourself a graduation burger or something.
Best of luck in whatever you decide to do.
Uncle Dave
