I was an Uber passenger in a fender bender and they offered me 600 to not sue

Whoops just broke my NDA

You need me to negotiate for you.

You should have said, “if it’ll help you out, my man, I will release you from liability for two grand.”

I bought a house to flip that was in bad shape. I placed a for sale sign in the yard and was there assessing what needed to be done first when someone pulled up and made me an "As-is," offer. I made $30k that week...

I got a couple hundred thousand because my house flooded for Katrina

Does that count?

I got a $30,000 sign on bonus to go work in Foley. I was then highered away 6 months later by another company and I told them I had a sign on bonus to pay off. So I got another sign on bonus for 30k and didn’t have to pay it back.

You are totally missing the point. You are a dickbag. And, aside from missing the point, you missed an opportunity to be a cool person - not your first, I assume.

Not me but my Dad. He got paid $32k when a ROW worker caught one of his oak trees on fire with a stray cig.

When I was in 7th or 8th grade I convinced a 1st grader on the bus that “2”quarters was more than “1” dollar so ever day for a long time we traded snack money.

I’m a wedding ceremony musician. I typically make $350-$500 per ceremony.

I practice twenty minute before I leave for the wedding and work at the wedding for about 45 minutes total including set up.

I don’t really call it any work.

Was a plant operator for several years. We made tons of money without doing any work, according to the OT..

Please tell me you smirk when you quote folks tree fiddy.

I’ve made six figures on a couple of deals by just being in the right time work-wise at the right place.

And Katrina household-related too personally.

Uncle Sam got his share...
