As many of you may or may not know, I live in an oil town. When oil pukes, many folks are laid off. It has been happening. Now, oil people usually make 100K a year, but manage their money poorly. With all the lay offs, the pawn shops are bursting with stuff. I am not the kind of guy who relishes others misery, and I feel bad when times are bad, but if I can buy some consumer items cheaply, I might as well pounce. Today I hit the pawn shops and bought these items. There are 2 Leatherman tools and one that is similiar but is made by Stanley tools. The top item is something called The Ultimate Spork, and is unbreakable and fire resistant. The middle item is a deck of cards. I paid $15.00 for the whole lot. What I am stressing here is, you can take advantage of others poor money management in bad times. I am not taking food out of their mouths, but am buying stuff they should not have bought in the first place. Good Hunting!!
