I got 50 bucks but I can't save it up...what do I buy with it.

 

You can say any crazy ideas you like, but if its to do with music, make sure its something in the extreme metal genre...

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.

Honestly, instead of blowing it, why not feed a homeless person or donate to charity?

I don't know if that would be harder or easier to catch on fire than what I was thinking...

lol the passive cooler

I dont even think you could get that card fiery hot :P

 

Edit: If you don't want to do that you can always see what you can get in the alley behind your local library.

Feeding starving people seems like the best choice in my opinion, and if you do it "manually" then you know for sure your money is actually helping them.

My question is are they poor by choice or lack of?  I refuse to help people that can make money but choose not to work.

Well for $25 I can sell you two games of top quality.  AC4: Black Flag and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Blacklist.  I have been trying to get rid of these for some time now and no luck.

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S

It was. I know plenty of people including my birth parents who were homeless and begged for money although had degrees and could have worked.

 

Okay.

 

But having those things doesn't mean they can get a job. If there isn't one to be had, then no degree will help you. You can tell someone is legit or not if they are leeching off the govt like Jason Greenslate who really does make other people want to ruin it for the legit people.
