Why be Rich?

Lots of people ask themselves that very question: "Why should I be rich?" People think it takes too much time to make the money, or that they're happy the way they are.
Screw them.
This could change your decision about not wanting to be rich.

I giggle when I think that some day, this piece of heaven on Earth, this will be mine.

Still don't wanna be rich?

Rave and Crave - Nothing to do with anything

Hmm.... My mom disagreed with me!

I find it interesting that you give this money making idea a thumbs up, when you gave a lemonade stand a thumbs down. With regards to how much time you need to spend getting your WOW character to a level of being valuable, I bet you make less money per hour gaming than you do selling lemonade. It would be interesting to compare some REAL time vs money charts for both.

MOoOM!
Lets back it up here, Crazy Cat Lady! (mhmm, das riiiight!) Now, let me ask yall THIS. Would you rather be sitting outside, all that awesome lemonade in front of you and not being able to drink it, waiting for someone to feel sorry for you and buy some lemonade? (I REALLY don't like lemonade stands....) Or would you rather be inside playing some awesome video game inside and knowing that in the end you'll get some cool cash reward for goofing off and having fun? Am I right? All in favour say "I'ma go to that poll and say aye!" (which will be up tomorrow)

He writes this hilarious money blog, Punny Munny.
Here's a post I particularily enjoyed.

Dream Advice

It's finally come. First giving financial advice just to friends and family, then people all over the world. I am now giving financial advice to people in my dreams. It makes me wonder what caused me to have this dream. Was it those camping hash browns?
Anyways, last night in my dream, I suddenly moved permanently to some place in the middle of nowhere. I moved with two of my friends into a tiny house (103 square feet) that was making very little money. They were a farming family, and the only place for them to grow crops was their front yard. Growing two different crops with ten plants each was not a very good way to make money. So I started telling them what they could do to make more money, and soon become a very big farming industry.
Maybe I'll visit them in my dream again and they'll be rich! And then THEY will visit ME and give me money! I'll keep dreaming....

Food Coupons

Food coupons can be a waste of time. Except for hash browns. You can save money on them by buying camping hash browns that have been dehydrated. Michael and I tried them. They smelled like onion powder and despair.
Here goes.
Michael took about two spoonfuls before he stopped. I was hungry, so I ate maybe half the plate before I really stopped and tasted it. We threw the rest out.
Back to food coupons.

The Toons go Head-to-Head in Fight for Best Rich Comic Character!

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the annual Rich Person’s Awards! Tonight we have three candidates from four different comics, all going for the award of most loved rich cartoon character! Here they are folks!

Give a round of applause to candidate number one, the star of Richie Rich Comics, Richie Rich! His family has their own police force, they’re so rich! Not to mention a money dam, almost having their own subway system, and relatives that are all rich! Proclaimed to be the richest kid in the world, Richie Rich is guessed to be a zillionaire!

Our second contestant, and possibly the most well known, Veronica Lodge! Not the richest person in the world, however, but possibly the most spoiled and flashy. As one of the star characters in the Archie Digests, she has her own spa which she uses every day, and has caviar as a midnight snack! Her father, Hiram Lodge, is possibly one of the most serious and old-fashioned fathers there is, but is a pushover when it comes to his daughter, leaving Veronica with anything she could ever want.

Now for our third contestant, with no doubt being the richest duck in the world, Scrooge McDuck! The Scrooge comics are a huge hit, as every episode he obtains a new fortune. Having beaten his arch rival, who obtains money in ill-gotten ways, in a most-money contest by a single dime, Scrooge McDuck shows that he is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to protecting his money. Starting out as a prospector, he has earned every penny he owns. Now, audience, we leave it up to you to decide who the best rich cartoon character is!

Please post your vote!
Veronica Lodge: 3
Scrooge McDuck: 5
Richie Rich: 2
