Charlespox on 
Let’s play a game. It’s a game about greed, so let me just get that out of the way now. You are making a Christmas/holiday/etc wishlist. On it are six items:
- An item $100,000 or less
- An item $10,000 or less
- An item $1,000 or less
- An item $100 or less
- An item $10 or less
- And finally, an item $1 or less
What’s on your list? Keep in mind it needs to be an actual item you can buy (eBay, Amazon, whatever). And no gift cards. Mine would look something like this:
- 2009 Porsche Carrera 4S
- Samsung LN55A950 – 55″ LED-backlit LCD TV
- Canon Digital Rebel XSi – dSLR camera
- Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 lens
- A carwash
- 3 Subway chocolate chip cookies
Your turn!

2. $10K — European vacation
3. $!K — wardrobe upgrade
4. $100 — good pair of boots
5. $1 — something from the bakery counter
1. $100,000: Ditto Tom on this one – something in the northwoods
2. $10,000: a nice used vehicle for my son; his van has a cracked windshield, huge dent in one side from a hit and run, and not manual handle to roll down the driver’s side window.
3. $1,000 a trip to visit friends & family in Oklahoma
4. $100 a day at the spa: hot stone massage and facial
5. $10 a meal at Whataburger while I’m in Oklahoma
6. $1 Mr. Goodbar
Oh, I missed the $10 level … batter-fried bluegill appetizer from Back When, with extra lemon.
$100,000 – Since I have land, I’ll build a big cabin
$10,000 – A kit to build my son a hot rod (I’m sure I’d have it done in 16 years)
$1,000 – Gretsch 6120SH Brian Setzer Signature Guitar
$100 – A big Lego set
$10 – Something from Inner Sleeve
$1 – Tall boy of High Life
Mo … pretty good price for that Gretsch. Nice ax.
You can get a used 6120 on ebay for that
Well … I can’t. Jane would kill me.
Please let me know if you’re looking for a article author for your
blog. You have some really good articles and I feel I would be a good asset.
If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d really like to write some content for
your blog in exchange for a link back to mine. Please blast me an e-mail if
interested. Many thanks!
