Title: Money, Honey
Post by: TehBorken on Apr 02 07 11:36
Damn, I need to rob a few banks or something.

Let's see...first I'm bidding on some domains over the next few days...big, fat, juicy ones that will probably co$t a $hitload of money.

Then my friend who's a car dealer is taking me down to the "Secret Car Dealer Auction" in Auburn tomorrow to replace my old Jeep Cherokee with a newer one, or something similar, anyway. (My old Jeep is, well, really really old. It's so old, the instruction manual came on clay tablets. The odometer just shows 'LOLOLOLOLOL' on it now.) Thank goodness my insurance costs will go up as well, I'd feel pretty bad if they didn't!

Then I gotta pay my son's orthodontist bill (his orthodontist needs another yacht- the old one got wet or something). Yaaaay. If you ask me, my son doesn't need all those damn teeth. People in Arkansas seem to get by just fine with just one or two.

Then there's a few plane tickets I need to purchase in advance.

So basically by the end of the week I'll be picking up cans and bottles and looking under the couch for spare change. I guess my son's brain operation will just have to wait, lol.

No, I'm just gonna take my gun down to the Stop 'N Rob, then swing by the bank for a quick *cough* withdrawl. (//forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/14.gif)

The real problem is that I just have too damn much money and need to rid myself of it.

Then I'd be distracted and probably forget to grab the loot.

No, it's only teh Great G00G that helps, but that's okay. I appreciate the thought. And truthfully, I have enough to cover the stuff I'm doing. I'm not a believer in credit or debt.

Lol, although there were a lot of hits the last few days, it'll be a looooong time before DS carries it's own weight. Without direct sales you need a hell of a lot of sustained traffic or a very 'clicky' site. DS has a ways to go. The last few days were above average, though.

Seriously, DS wasn't started with the idea of it making any money, I just liked the idea of a "city-centric" website for the Seattle area. It's been a lot of fun so far, maybe someday it'll be a big dawg.

If we can all help out with TB and click on those ads every now and then we can pay for his son's ortho bills for years to come. Woot!
