The only effect I've seen is less elective cosmetic procedures. Even though I didn't see the usuall 15%-20% growth that I had in prior years, I also didn't have a major decrease in my 2008 collections.
Orange County, Huntington Beach. Bulldog Lounge.Which Hookah bars in LA are yours? I have a lot of family in LA that frequent hookah bars. Just wondering if tis anything I've been to and/or they've heard of.
I sit and wonder if in the future, if in the job market a well stocked tool box and a good pair of hands will be worth more than product knowledge and a college degree.........
Has anyone ever thought of being a sperm donor?
I will neither confirm nor deny that I am or not.
Donors will be reimbursed up to $100 per donation and up to $1200 a month by donating 3 times a week. They periodically offer incentives such as movie tickets or gift certificates for extra time and effort expended by participating donors. It's tough work, espcially after turn on the news.
As a donor, you will be classified as an independent contractor under the IRS code. Although no taxes are deducted from reimbursement checks, the sperm banks are required to report the reimbursement paid to you.
In addition, the cum banks are required to report such earnings to EDD. Therefore, each January, you will receive a 1099 form reflecting the total reimbursement paid to you during the previous calendar year.
BTW, they limit how many offsprings to minimize accidental inbreeding when your children grow up and end up boinking each other (unknowingly) at pron night, for example.
A good way to cheat is to frequent other sperm banks in the area, with the NSX of course.
Wear loose pants, preferably no undies since it cools ur nuts.
Consume L-arginine and whey protein with spirulina
Don't smoke, do drugs, drink and have unprotected sex.
Key take aways:
- Earn up to $1200.00/month
- Be your own boss - Donate at your convenience up to 3 times a week ($100.00/donation)
- Receive a free genetic screening and consultation
- Receive free infectious disease and health screenings (every week like a porn star)
- Help people fulfill their dreams of starting a family
My line of work is in the automotive industry.
I own a couple car dealerships,service,towing etc.
I have been living the good life for about 9 years in this biz. December was terrible and really put me in perspective as to what "can" happen. Sold only 28 cars total. Average over 50. Even with the slow december we still did more than several VERY LARGE car dealers in the area. For instance. Kerry Dodge Spent well over 30k in advertising did only 9 cars for the month.OUCH!
January has been ROCKIN!!! Doing very well this month and Hope that now that tax checks are coming out there will be more coming with more and more down payment money... I specialize in special financing for people with bad credit so tax season is usually my bread and butter.
So long story short we were down 2% in 08 from 07 when we usually see a 8-15% growth per year since 2000. :frown:
Not worried as of yet. But december certainly cleared my head and showed me what a bad month could be.
I wish all of you that are lookign for jobs luck in finding and hope everyone comes out as easy as possible with this downturn.
Is it really that bad in Vegas? How are the casinos doing?
I know!! Ha... think again.. I've been laid off for 2 months! Just need to ride it out...
Are any of you guys in some sorta role where you are directly associated with revenue generation like me in a niche market that has diverse use?
It always has been in the area of NY where you and I live. A college degree in CNY will get you 30k a year where a van and a hammer or a sewer snake can get you 30k a month.
I have thought of breaking into the Buffalo area but it's a dangerous market in more than just one way.
Surprisingly, one thing that is growing in the actual city, is foreign investment. About two years ago, people from Australia were buying up apartment buildings in the city, hiring property managers, and collecting section 8 rent.
I don't know what you do.

But unlike pimping.... what I do has little people with those skillsets in that industry.
