Ploys of the Unemployed
I’d like to know where the money comes from. Really I’d just like to know how people my age are putting offers on houses. What kinds of jobs are people getting right now that allow for house buying and traveling and all kinds of other annoying Facebook status updates? Where is it coming from and, more importantly, how can I get me some of that? I mean, I work just as hard as the next guy. In fact, I went to college, threw down a pretty penny, got a degree, yet here I am. Watching people my age buying houses.
I believe the time has come for drastic measures.
Maybe I could just get hit by a car at a crosswalk.

Or maybe I could move to Idaho and try my luck with the lottery.

I could work for these guys…

I could turn into Nancy Botwin?

I could just pull a massive casino heist…

Or maybe learning to count cards would be easier.
Maybe I could change my name to Blanket and sneak into the Jackson family. Or I could cut my hair like this, pop out 8 kids, get rich off their exploitation, then embark in a highly publicized divorce.

At this point, any of these options are probably more feasible than me getting rich. I think I’ll take the Nancy Botwin route. Sans Guillermo, though.










It’s Mitch. He’s bringing you down. I am rich because I am single. That’s the secret.
I will buy some of your goods if you choose that route. Not because I need them of course, I just want to support you.
It’s so funny that you blogged about this because I was seriously just thinking the SAME thing yesterday. I feel like all of a sudden there are like 50 people that are buying a house and I swear they can’t afford one…wtf??! Eff that shiz.
Funny you mention buying a house because i was thinking about buying one out in Herriman. After i get married of course. And then popping out a dozen tots or so.
Would you like to join my cookie cutter house club?
Amy you crack me up but at the same time you have alot of the same thought processes I do.. I wonder how people pull it off and make it look so effortless.. buying a house, these HUGE new cars, all those toys.. Heck just keeping above water is a challenge enough as it is at any age..
you forgot to mention how you could model your life after our dear Anna Nicole (RIP ANNA)… then you could afford a house AND some druuugs.
