To do what?
Buy posters, forge signatures, then sell them? That's illegal. You don't need a degree.

But I care about being harsh to a dead guy rather than caring about our government. Government is crap, especially ours.

Short of robbery and prostitution LOL

awwwww

my advice: learn poker. play poker with people who don't know poker but have cash. cha-ching! but in all seriousness if you could find any sort of a job (mowing is fine) just do that.

Sauce, benefit fruad :D lol

Erm... i remember when I was in like year 7 and I needed lots of money I did lots of PSP hacking and modding (This was like at the time when Dark Alex was just starting making CFW) and I would make around £200 a week, but then I sorta squeezed all the juice outa people if you get what I mean :)

Also you can always get £50 from someone if you let them beat you up? LOL or if you have a family member or friend who is self employed, ask if you can do some work for them (Legally, your old enough to work part time)

EDIT: Also what im doing right now, when I was doing newspaper rounds (I still do) I came across somebody who thrown out 3 laptops, he said they all don't work and I asked If I can have them, which obviously he let me (Recycling :D LOL) 2 of them I managed to fix, and re install XP onto it (Performance editions since their quite old, now they are really fast) the other one I can't get it to work so I might sell it as broken on ebay and make a tenner from it. One of the working ones I gave to my dad so he can use it for programming (It has a serial port, and its a sony vaio), the other one, its fully fixed, and its a great laptop, quite new, very fast, and its res is quite high (1400x1050 i think), and I reinstalled OS on it, problem is the paint looks REALLY bad on the back, its like he tried to paint his name onto it LOL but yeah it looks so bad it lowers the value by like -%80 so im gonna airbrush the laptop (Obviously taking it apart), Im gonna make it glossy black :D Which will look awesome and up its value, I will then sell it on ebay hoping to make a large profit (Like £15 on the paint), probaly making more than £100 on ebay?

Also I bought a broken Samsung YP-something something mp3 player off ebay, apparently it kept freezing and now I managed to fix it (I bought it for £20) and they are brand new at £130, so I will also try to sell this and make a good £60 or something from it

Im saving up for some computer upgrades tbh, the fans that came with my case are :censored:, they are loud and they don't push that much air, infact I can barely feel any airflow so I will be buying these xilence (DUnno how its spelt) which are dead silent and push ALOT of air, bit expensive though, also I better CPU cooler (Using stock phenom x4 cooler, which is loud when playing games), also some more fans for the PSU (Its an arctic cooling 700w) since its quiet and cold when idle but when playing games it gets really loud and kinda warm/hot, it only has one 80mm fan on (Which exausts hot air), so I will swap that for an xilence one and also add another fan on the inside to take cold air from the case and blow it through the whole PSU, cooling it down alot more, so it doesnt even need to increase the speed of the fans, and so the psu is dead silent. And some rubber case feet... And if I still have money, an extra 500GB HDD to go into RAID 0 and if I need it, another 4GB of ram (So i have 8GB). Also I need to buy an electric guitar, so yeah, im in need of money lol, but I will get tehre, the money im making from selling my stuff and the £25 from newspaper and what not, I should get the money sooner or later

I'd have to ask my parents if I could buy it (they're a  tad technophobic), but it does depend on how well the stuff in my FS thread sells... so far NOTHING has sold yet...
(btw, what are the specs on it, like processor, RAM, harddrive, color, etc.)
