• Money, money, money, money

  I ask you, where's my golden ticket? Where's my big win?
  
  I sit here everyday contemplating various get-rich-quick schemes.  I go through my old crap to sell, I sell my books online rather than to the bookstore for a few extra bucks, I look through ancient baseball cards for a diamond in the rough.  And what does it amount to? Maybe 1/100th of the cost of one semester of school.
  
  I know that when I graduate, I'll recoup all of my money spent towards school in one year, so that's not a bad investment.  But I want money now!
  
  I think of ingenious money making schemes involving stealing, conning, or running a glory hole.  But why should I have to rob someone or drill a hole in a bathroom stall in order to finally make it to easy street?
  
  Why does some 70 year old soon-to-be-dead toothless truck driver in Redneck, USA win the lottery when my scratch-offs barely break even? Am I not as deserving for my chance of riches than the moron on Deal or No Deal who passes up an offer of 300k just to eventually only win $25?
  
  I guess what I'm really trying to say is...
  I want a Playstation 3!!!
