Also after you get rid of the T.V mow lawns for $20 a lawn

Thats what i do in the summer. You could also have a job where you can stay home and work which takes away the rising cost of cash being taken out of your wallet for gas. Heck who needs coffee build yourself a freshwater filterd lake for drinking water

Stop eating fast food and limit your going to those fancy pants resteraunts and cook and grow your own dang food. Quit using credit cards, and use only cash. Sell all your gold cause it sells for big $$ now. Cant think of anymore at the moment

I am going to give these a try:

- Full figured male model (think Zoolander plus 50lbs).
- Check pay phones for change (My old Mother does this, terribly embarrassing).
- Sell my wife's jewelry. She never wears it because I never take her anywhere. Just ask her!
- Top Ramen!
- Sublet the house. I think I can take advantage of undocumented aliens and put three entire families downstairs. Would make for some interesting cooking aromas also.
- Take advantage of BCA's upcoming "Push, pull or drag" trade in program with the old Suburban to trade up to the KT.
- Pork and Beans!
- Sell a bunch of PTE 1/18 A-10s on e-bay for a BUY IT NOW price of $100.
- Donate plasma. I will be awfully pale but hey, after a few months I'll have that 88MM.
- Tomato soup!

A dose of reality from someone who deals with consumers facing far worse:

Skip those 21-per-month daily sodas from the machine at work and you're nearly half way there to a new bird. A lot of people are two-a-day machine addicts.

Scrap your credit cards, pay them off and stash what you would have been paying in interest and fees to your collection habit.

Stop putting mid-grade or premium in your car that doesn't really need it.

NEVER buy something to eat from a convenience store.

Ditch the pay-per-views. What's a couple hours worth of mindless entertainment compared to having a new bird to put together and look at for years to come?

Drink alcohol only at home. I'll bet you've seen bar tabs (including tips) that are be more than a new plane.

Stop rushing up to red lights; with gas approaching $4 per gallon you could probably buy a new airplane every other month if you get your foot off the pedal more often.

If you buy lottery tickets - stop. Put the money aside to feed your 1:18 habit. You'll get more out of it.

Starbucks for coffee - are you out of your frickin' mind?

Make a weekly meal plan, shop based on it no more than twice a week, stick to it and take your lunch to work.

Just a thought...

Now that's just crazy talk

Become a professional cat juggler.

Raise killer bees.

Sell kisses on the corner.

Pimp out the wife.

Pimp out the neighbor's wife.

Sell my friends stuff.

Genetically engineer the perfect cockroach.

Rent out the local Wendy's for parties.

Harvest organs from unsuspecting tourists.

Mark

I thought cockroaches were ALREADY perfect...

(At least the big sparrow-sized flying ones we have down here appear to be)
