Lend, Moxco 10 pounds; demand he pays back 1000% by tomorrow. Moxco pays you back; you win ipad and as a token of your aprreciation, for being such a loyal customer you give Moxco 100 pounds. Your up an Ipad, I'm up $16, it's a win-win situation right?

Because if you put in 100 pounds of your own money, they would give you an iPad 2 that you could sell for 200 pounds.
If you win.

I payed £44 for Blur on it's release day, I've managed to scrape back more than £44 from tournaments.

I got paid £45 on monday just for a tournament i placed 2nd in.

I might just play some black jack or texas hold 'em online. It's just £10 and it's not even mine, so I'll win some or lose £10, big whoop.

Perhaps I could buy a proxy and charge for advertising. Meh, maybe I'll cave in and just keep it safe, then return the £10 in easter.

I'm actually serious.

One of my friends' older brother busked for about two hours and managed to get around forty quid.

He had this nefarious plan to do it near foreigners giving out copies of Big Issue or whatever it is. People preferred to give him their money, as then they wouldn't be bothered by dirty outsiders.

Busk if you're good. A lot of buskers are awful, so when someone good is playing a lot of people seem to pay just for the novelty.

Play an ultra-violent death metal song with clear singing and a mellow melody.

I'm going to go to Watford, hang about in this underpass with one of my acoustic guitars and play 'Oh yeah' by Ferris Bueller. Or I dunno, Lynyrd Skynyrd.

In capitalism you sell the fruits of your employees' labours and then (after other costs) pay your employees less than the value of those labours, keeping the rest for yourself.

You should do that.

But I'm a socialist. Actually I'm not anything, I like the idea of socialism but I've grown up in a largely capitalist society and economy in the lower/ working class. Fuck anyone who says it's too hard.

From what my mate living in Croatia said, Yugoslavia generally was a much better place to live when compared to what it split in to.
