A Menu For People Who Owe $2 Million To The Bank

I've already threatened to do this before on this blog and on Casey Serin's comments...

So, what the hell does one eat when one is $2 M in debt?

  1. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich, holding the peanut butter and the jelly and the bread?
  2. Half a brick of ramen per meal? (mixed in with public water fountain water)
  3. Army emergency rations?
  4. Whatever you find in a supermarket dumpster?
  5. Go to nice restaurants and sneak out afterwards?
  6. Boiled weeds (see North Korean directive on food supplementation)?
  7. And the old standby: shoplifting.

Wouldn't it be ironic if Casey didn't get sent to jail for fraud but for stealing a loaf of bread from Albertson's?

Your thoughts, please!

If he already owes 2M, why not make it 2.1M?

SQT,

As a "local" girl, are there any expensive sushi restaurants nearby?

Several actually. The most popular is probably Mikuni's, though a lot of people like Akebono's. I also like Fat's, which is a good dim sum restaurant.

I like California Fat's. I guess it has the same owner.

TOLurker,

(Nodding in agreement) Yeah! My college's cafeteria would always throw away leftover donuts and bagels because they didn't want to be hassled with soup kitchens.

I would actually recommend the rice and bean diet for Casey (works for millions of third world peasants), but if he's for real, he won't have utility service for too long.
