I work part time for my parents, who own Midwest Health. I'm the computer guy. I get healthcare, a gas allowance (which was especially great when I had the Q), and sometimes I get a paycheck.

I run a book business called NSFW. I buy and sell academic textbooks. I'm expanding big time this winter. Yay!

For the most part, I live off grant and scholarship money, which has enabled me to spend a lot of time postwhoring on NICO and cleaning the contents of my nostrils. Mmmmm. Boogers.

Could I answer this a few more times? Please?

Anyway, blah blah blah yackity schmackity desk job yammer yammer yammer computer and a tie.

I do real estate acquisitions, I work for a REIT that buys car dealerships, and it is the best job ever, seriously. If any of you ever catch me complaining about my job, shoot me.

I also buy/sell cars on the side for a profit, and I used to run an ebay videogames business, now I'm just clearing out the last of my inventory slowly.

I bought a 2000 Contour today for $1500, so w00t for me. I hope to have it sold by the end of November.
