Your drug story reminded me of a story of an elderly couple I read in Facebook. the couple bought a shrub from a sale and grew it. Unknowingly, the plant they have been taking care of is a cannabis! They only learned about it when the police authorities told them.

J.,

You had me spit on my computer from busting out laughing. No, I wasn’t a stripper, I only baked crackers. Seriously, crackers. It was that boring! Maybe that is why I was given drugs, because everyone was always bored or something.

I also get people telling me about the times they did drugs, even if it was last week. Not sure if I look like someone easy to talk to, or I just look interested in drugs. hmm, makes me wonder…

I didn’t realize what he said until after he was long gone and by that point I didn’t remember how much he was charging… probably more than where you live :-P

That would be an interesting topic to post about, a “druggie’s” budget. Similar to the above, but with some more detail, including retirement plans (you know, retire and move to Columbia, that kinda thing). LoL!

True story. I used to work at a outsourced call centre which means agents have no assigned seating. You sit at a different station every day. One day I came in for my evening shift and found a piece of paper at my desk with a budget. It looked something like this:

rent 250
food 150
smokes 40
weed 75
bus tickets 40

You can’t really fault the guy as he did make a budget.

@Adam Hathaway – I try and not bring it up if possible, haha…
@Lance @ Money Life and More – Hah! How much did it cost you? ;)
@Joe @ Retire By 40 – (bah dum ching!)
@Savvy Scot – You know what’s funny about that? I actually NEVER get stopped at the airport! I think it’s too obvious if they “randomly” search me, so they end up NEVER searching me :) It’s actually kinda awesome. And I make a point to always spike up my hair every single time too, just because of that.
@Pauline – Ahhh.. yeah, I guess it could have been that too. I never responded back though so I guess we’ll never know! :)
@Jackie – HAH! Now THAT would have been more interesting :)
@20’s Finances – I can’t complain, you paid me top dollar! :) (And nah – I don’t think they’ve seen my pic? Though the druggie ones have always in in person anyways so ofcourse they have…)
@David@SkepticFinance – Haha… that is awesome. You might as well just hook up a deal w/ the REAL dutch diamond guy and start getting paid for all your referrals ;)
@LB @ Finanical Black Sheep – Haha, I get quite too when I’m mad and people know right away cuz I’m never that quite! ;) And now you have me guessing about your old side hustle? Hmmm…. stripper? ;)

I was given drugs more than once, and from a medical marijuana businesses. Yeah, do I LOOK like I am into drugs. Not like any of you know what I look like HA! Maybe at the time I did, because of the side-hussle I was doing.

Usually, I just get mistaken for being mad, when I am really just arguing and trying to state a side or something I like. People don’t understand if I a mad, I don’t say anything, because I don’t like my temper to run things.

My favorite is when I am mistaken for someone, but someone the person likes HA! I have been mistaken for both a person someone doesn’t like and a person someone does like. I must have a twin somewhere I don’t know about. ;)

I get emails from people thinking I’m a dutch diamond dealer, it has been going on for a couple years now and I’ve given up trying to convince people that I’m not. I even have an office in Antwerp (I checked it out on Google street view) and an apartment in Paris so if you need a place to run your egg selling scheme let me know.
