    Gear Fundage

    This question is obviously for the guys withouts lots of disposable income such as myself. Well, I have some, but I have too many hobbies and toys so it still gets stretched thin

    How do you get your money for your gear? Do you put aside a little a month and just budget for it? Thats hard for me to do getting paid just once a month. Do you dip into savings? I don't like that idea either.

    Please don't tell me you pimp yourself out or sell plasma (unless you really do lol) I am just curious of any tips.

    I am looking across the room right now at my spare change bucket and there must be 500 bucks in there. Hmm...

    Yeah I was just thinking it would be a damn good start to my next cycle for sure. It just dawned on me I had that sitting there.

    There is a machine at the Kroger around the corner that just lets you pour as much change as you want in it and you dont have to worry about rolling it and all that crap. I wonder how much of a cut they take

    I feel like my guys prices are fair. Some of that shit is just expesnisive. Like Arimidex and Arimasin. And by the time you add enough test, a 19nor, and a DHT things start to add up. Not to mention PCT. Its definitely doable, but I hate to dig into savings, just looking for options. Wish I had the funds to just keep doing gh.

    You could consider some extra work as a bouncer.

    Well, it cant go wrong, in the end you could always turn to gay porn :P

    I don't think so, if they're cool about it, they'll just let you do it. If a real stickler is working they might say something. worth saving $45 dollars to try it though you know.

    Yeah no doubt, thanks for the tip. I wonder why banks arent doing it. Guess they truly do nothing for free anymore.

    Worst comes to worst, make your girl roll that stuff. That's what I did last time my jug was full. Bribe her with a chickflick night.

    LOL what a genius who takes that machine.

    Collect copper, nickel, silver, and various other metals that are worth more than the change haha.

    Your going to see alot of this shit start to happen. Never get rid of your old coins.

    With the shit that has been going on lately the treasury and the Federal reserve are about to unload an inflation frenzy.

    Go feel some old coins from the 70's and the new ones you can see the debasement.

    Banks will do it for free, actually ill do it for you. The copper in the penny is worth more then the penny itself. Any coins before 1980 i wouldn't through away,

    lmao off topic but couldnt resist. As for where most get the money i am not sure if your single and not married which alot on here are i am sure it is a much different story if you have a family, wife, etc.

    But i dont think its a good idea to dig into your savings. re budget and find other places you can make cuts.

    actually sorry back on this that is hilarious if you look back in history governments got so desperate they had to put laws in place. We even have laws specifying you can not demand payments in specific monetary units such as the dime etc.

    I find it funny how far the government will go to cover up what it really does with our money. I wouldn't be surprised if we start to see laws like this in place preventing exactly that.

    If your not aware what the government would do with old pennies for example is melt them down and mint newer coins that posses less copper otherwise known as debasement. Your all going to laugh that its a penny but this adds up overtime and it is wrong.

    I haven't been sooo desperate as to where i go donate plasma, and i hope my addiction never goes that far.
    I personally go to the bank and take out a fat ass loan and let the money do the talking!
    J/k i get paid weekly, so i just take a pay check and use it towards a cycle.

    Drug testing. You're basically putting your life/health in their hands, but the money is great.

    I do it in Japan. They test drugs that have already passed FDA trials in the States from about 10-15 years ago at a much lower dosage (Japs are weak). I made $9K for 10 days of testing a drug to treat high cholesterol at 1/5 the regular dosage. Not sure how it works in the States, but worth a look into.

    It's getting really fishy these days. I'm not sure if this applies but I went into the Apple store a few weeks ago and wanted to buy a Iphone I was told I had to pay in advance. I said ok, no problem here is the cash. The employee told me I had to pay with a credit card. I told him I don't have one but I am willing to pay cash. He said sorry if you want to reserve one you need a credit card. I thought cash was king, what's this world coming to? But, the more you look around you see people carrying less cash, hell I bet even if you go to starbucks you'll see majority of the people paying for a $3 coffee with plastic.

    These retailers, especially fast food types have discovered an interesting phonomenon. MCD's and Taco Bell noticed that once they started taking credit cards, the average order went up something like 60 % for those using plastic. There is no physical pain when paying with plastic as there is when you pull cash out of the wallet.


    Thanks for the good ideas guys...Nitro

    Very good way to do things if you can get it all to work out just right. Like you said, have to know your customers and have the cash for 5 up front though.

    I'm a broke kid myself. Between car payments, insurance, phone bill, utilities, rent, FOOD, etc I barely get by. I usually put a certain amount aside to just save up for protein. Its sad. If I had more money, ohhhh the things I could do

    I don't mean we don't have money. Me and my wife consider my gear to be part of everything else..... "what's today? Tuesday... don't you have to get some more AAS today? etc, etc, etc"

    I just mean I get excited when I have money.... she usually keeps it all.... well, all of it that doesn't go towards our kids

    Yep thats what this thread is all about. Creative ways to come up with gear money. Shit so far, my spare change idea is the best I think. Besides the japanese medical testing thing. Maybe I can donate sperm ans charge by the swimmer.

    Ahh so it is simply put into the budget like gas and groceries. Yes, one of the methods that sadly I have a hard time with. I must resort to spare change diving and such. I'm looking for easy money here people!
