tough situation. what i did when i was 15 was sell candy at school; snickers, twix etc. Made over 300 bucks in only 2 weeks. Now selling candy at my school is as bad as sellin drugs.

I was just about to say, "Start sling'n mang."


or

w/o an ethical delima, you could start ebaying all the stuff you dont really use anymore, if it has any value..

We used to go to the grocery store before shcool started and buy MANY packs of Hubba-Bubba for $.25 per pack when bought in bulk, then we would sell each peace for like a Quarter.... Man the profit was good. Likewise, we used to buy large bags of Jolly Ranchers and then sell each piece for like a nickle.

Man, those were the good old days of capitalism. Today, I am an independent contractor offering my services(whoring) for top dollar; started with those early days.

yeah, actually, I'm ebaying neon beer signs that I've collected over the years. Don't do anything but take up wall space and suck electricity.

I can think of something way cooler to hang on my wall than a Corona or Miller lite neon.

I guess I couldn't when i was 18-19.

LOL! I always wanted to collect Neon signs, but then I got Energy contious, so they are complete out fo the questiosn now or I would offer to bid on some. LOL!

You won't have to leave Jäger, we'll still be here when you get back to playing cs again and you'll still be welcomed back by Jäger as a clan member, but please try to get on your brother's or a friend's computer to stop by and say "wassup" so we know you aren't dead lol. I won't say bye yet cause you'll still be playing cs for a few more days won't you? I'll be on alot less often until mid february when wrestling is done because I want to try to go to state finals and need to work out alot. Then when that's over I'll be getting a job to earn money to build a kickass 3 or 4 month paycheck computer and I'll still play in my freetime but how often will be dictated by how many hours I work a week.

Right now.. I found you a CPU, Motherboard, graphics card, RAM, computer case, and power supply.

TOTAL: $676.94
Labor +$65
GRAND TOTAL:$741.94

and I will tell you thats one HELL of a deal. I could of put in the 8800, but that's more $. So i put in the 8600GTS. 8600GTS can play CoD4 on max settings, same with CS, and TF2.

But thats not including shipping and its not including sound card, monitor, keyboard, mouse, operating system. Since i figure you have most, if not all of these.

Those are just the main things you need. I still to this day, do not use a sound card. I use the on-board sound.

Here's exactly what i threw together:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Windsor @ 3.0GHz

Patriot Extreme Performance 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-pin DDR2 800

Apevia Power Supply 600W (I have one, and they work nice! fan adjustment knob)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817148026

EVGA GeForce 8600GTS 512MB PCI-ExpressX16

yeah, the energy these things suck is crazy. And not even turning them on, either, the "vampire" juice it pulls is insane. I've got a miller lite, a corona, a lone star neon and I've got a tecate, rolling rock, and dos XX plain sign as well as a Shiner Bock mirror. I'm sellin 'all of them on e-bay. Right now, onyl the corona sign is listed, I'm going to see how much that pulls.

Might be able to see 'em at a higher price somewhere else.

If I generate enough $, I might be running into a new computer even though this one is less than a year old.

consider a dell, they're pretty decent for the price. i'm going to be building my own, but that's because its more cost efficient to build an expensive computer on your own than to customize the dell ones to be kickass
