How The Poor And Middle Class Can Make Money Like Romney

Think just because you are poor or middle class you can’t pocket millions of dollars in tax savings like Mitt Romney?

Guess again. There are millions of creative ways the average person can cash in.

Here is an easy way to keep a couple extra million in your pocket.

  1. Sell everything of value you own.
  2. Take your $5.45 to the local park or freeway underpass.
  3. Find a blind person (or at least one visually impaired enough to require a cane or seeing eye dog).
  4. Hire that person to create you blind trust (assuming you trust them of course).
  5. Give the person $1.00 and tell them that it is $100 (you will be expecting change).
  6. Go to Wal-Mart with the remaining $4.45
  7. Buy 10 apples for  $2.50 – then immediately go the parking lot and sell all 10 apples for $2.00 (clearly you will need to make it up in volume).
  8. Collect the balance due from the blind guy (this will be interest income).
  9. Declare loss on the apple sale (est. $235,000 profit you would have made had you knew how the hell to run a business).

10. Fire the blind guy and collect the unemployment for him.

11. Re-invest the unemployment benefits in the company.

Here is where the real cash comes in…

12. In the spring, buy Girl Scout Cookies.

13. Sell the cookies in the winter (don’t worry, they will keep).

14. In the winter buy McDonald’s McRib sandwiches.

15. In the spring, sell the McRib sandwiches (don’t worry, they will keep).

16. Hire back the blind guy.

17. Run for some sort of political office.

18. Get millions donated to help you (off the books of course).

19. Retire

There, now that wasn’t that hard was it?

*Course this has nothing to do with how Romney actually made money. I am pretty sure that there were no blind guys harmed and no apples. Course I can’t really speak for the McRib sandwich part – that is a gold mine!

Top Ten Tebow Comments from Jesus

A recent poll indicated that as much as 43% of the people interviewed felt Tebow’s success with the Denver Broncos was due to “Divine Intervention.” I suppose that will be the same percentage of people I will piss off with these blasphemous comments I made up.

IF Jesus was to speak with Tebow the next day after the playoff loss, here are my top ten things I think he might say…

10. Stepped out for a couple days, did I miss anything?

9. What? The game was on Sunday? My bad.

8.  Ooops, Saturday night I was watching FireFly reruns. Man they cancelled that show too soon.

7. Dang, I wasted the entire second half waiting in line for a pretzel.

6. Dude, I thought you had this covered!

5. WTF? Like home field advantage would have made a difference?

4. Seriously, the next thing you will want me to do is actually play for you.

3. Sheesh, it was a loss, don’t go all Charlie Sheen on me.

2. Sorry man, I am a Packer Fan. 

1. Really Tebow, did you not think I had something better to do?

Best Response to Debt Ceiling

Here’s another way to look at the Debt Ceiling:

Let’s say, You come home from work and find there has been a sewer
backup in your neighborhood….and your home has sewage all the way up to your ceilings.

What do you think you should do ……

Raise the ceilings, or pump out the crap?

Best Response……came from Jerry L. (Dallas, Tx)

“How bout we kick the $#@% out of the guy who broke sewage line.”

Time Names “The Protester” as Person of the Year

Time magazine has named “The Protester” as Person of the Year for 2011.

Before someone drops a Cappuccino on Wall Street and starts celebrating, no, they are not talking about you. Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party are not in the same category…sorry.

If Time was forced to pick the US equivalent of the international protesters, they might have skipped this year.

Course IF Time was talking about the Occupy Wall Street movement I suspect they would all pack up their bags, declare a moral victory, and head over to some big box store to celebrate (I mean you can only avoid evil corporations for so long…until you want something…like food or clothing).

Anyway, well done Time. For awhile there I thought you were going to pick the cast of Jersey Shores or Charlie Sheen.
