I can indeed give you a job if you like, but I'll have you know that being my minion is considered payment enough.

You could probably buy more than 4,000 cookies

greedrex 09.22.2008 04:20 PM

cookies ain't cheap, dude.
subprime crisis and all, you know.

I've worked at ... Wal-Mart ... for 3 years but I managed to have $9,000 in the bank. There is no easy money. You have to be patient.

I made a thread like this before, though, and we all came to the conclusion that starting a noise band and releasing a 100 albums a week is probably profitable.

pbradley 09.22.2008 04:46 PM

I want to get into the stock market! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

atsonicpark 09.22.2008 04:53 PM

Haha.

I have stocks in Wal-Mart... but I think I'm gonna sell 'em real soon.

Um.

Oh, other ways I make money easily besides working at that shit hole:

- Sell cd's from my bands
- I used to do internet surveys but I don't do those anymore, but you'd be surprised how much money I made from that back when I had time to do that shit. I'd get like 10 checks in the mail a week ranging from 80 cents to $10.
- Burn movies and sell them to people for like $5. I made hundreds of dollars that way.. back when I had time to do that. It's technically illegal but oh well.
- Back when I was in high school, I burned cd's for people for money, but nowadays everyone has a CD burner. I also used to do people's essays for them. One dude paid me $30 to do this report for him. It took me a good two hours but it was worth it. I type 149 words per minute, so it was easy.
- The thing I do now is I buy and sell expensive video games online. I hit up pawn shops that are selling games for like $10 and I know the value of almost any game you can think of, if something's rare or not, you know? Just yesterday, I sold Legend of Mana (got $46), Brigandine (got $80!), and Kartia (got $21) online. I didn't pay more than $10 for any of them. I only do this about once a month but it works.

unless he wants to live off kool-aid and cheese sammiches, book store/record store/walmart just isn't going to cut it.

and yes, it is harder to save $9,000 when you have more than just "what nintendo game will I buy today" to worry about (surely, you know this).

just sayin'.

Yeah I do but I only work at walmart part time and I still pay half the bills here...

So, if I worked there full time and had my own place, I'd still be able to save money like I'm doing now.........

I'm very tight with my money. The only big purchases in the past few years were fixing my car up, which cost like $400, a $300 guitar, and letting my girlfriend borrow $150.

Otherwise, I'm tight as fuck. Just netflix movies and burn them or buy $0.01 vhs tapes form amazon... and when I buy cd's they're always really cheap... I'm tight.
