Never spent much on liquor while at LSU. Fraternity brothers worked all the bars(no cover, free drinks), fraternity paid for liquor at tailgates
I also had a job so was never strapped for cash. Most of the money I spent was on marijuana

1991-93, was a tutor for athletics and TA for philosophy dept, but also lived right across the street from the tennis courts by the PMAC on Chimes. I would move my truck to the back of the apartments on game day and sell my spot for $15.00 on game day, walk down to the corner store, grab a bottle and walk the parking lot tailgate to eat and drink more. Good times.

Work for a moving company. What else is a college aged male supposed to do. Move shite around for a workout and then get drunk off the money after. Plus you get to keep random furniture at times because why not

Sold plasma at the place off of Nicholson near downtown. Name was NABI? From 1993-1996.
$12 on Monday, $20 on Thursday and a $25 bonus for donating 8 times in a row.

Work for a catering company that allowed us to drink after the jobs were done and to eat leftover food. Left every job with a buzz and a full stomach.

It is amazing how many people sold plasma.
I did this in the very early 90s. They paid $25/week if you give twice; $10 for the first donation then $15 for the second.
Good times for sure.

I used to work offshore during the summer and winter breaks. That combines with TOPS and the stipend, I paid my way through undergrad without any student loans. Grad school was a different story...

We would drive around at the end of semesters and pick up furniture then store it in a barn at the farm I worked at. When the next semester would start we would sell it on craigslist. Made about 3k one year.
