Firstly, the fact that you refer to weed as dope tells me that you're a chump. Along with every other word you've typed.

There's no need to launder money until you're spending at least $50k a year in undocumented money.

I was really lucky to not get caught doing it. I'd be in prison if I had gotten caught.

I had police come to my house, but they didn't have a warrant. I pushed everything off and stopped within 3 days. I was 20 and had enough to pay for undergrad and law school by then.

I got a DWI one night while I had 6 pounds of weed in my trunk. That was funny. Cost me a couple grand and like 50 hours of my time.

Potential negative:
You spend 10 years in prison and never work a real job. not cool

I always sift through the thrift stores to find decent clothing--like jeans, jackets, etc.--and then I sell them on ebay at an inflated price. It's a fun little hobby that lines your pockets (your Paypal, actually). Don't expect a lot of money, though. The income flow is very irregular. One month, you'll just peddle around jeans. The next month, you could be peddling jeans, name brand coats, etc.

Nah, I'll be fine. You're talking shit about an iPhone pic behind the scenes of something that was costumey and commissioned by a client. My construction is very nice, and I do actually get a lot of work in fashion design despite my lack of experience. Why would I stop what I'm passionate about because two anons who probably fap nightly to Dick Ovens, a designer who repeatedly recycles the same overpriced massmarket-esque gothninja trash? Yeh, okay mates.

Yeah, I mean, what's wrong with all these people who keep praising this designer who happens to receive constant critical praise and whose clothes are in several museums and whose collections sell in extremely prestigious stores. It's not like success is a measure of success or anything.

I think that that anon is being a little bit of a dick (thought I agree that these costume-y pieces are a little schlocky for my taste), but it's silly to lash out at an established designer in some attempt to prove how "beyond influence" you are.

How is Architecture? Was it hard to get a job? Also, what was school like?

sinecure at a family member's law office right now. Was cool initially but I kind of want to teach English in Korea or China or something for a year or two, maybe try and join the foreign service. I dunno. Long term goal is that real estate thing, being a landlord. Never want to have a real job if possible. Will most likely work out too.

I am a contractor/beaner employer for good pay. Work a lot with interior designers and aspire to eventually become one. I usually take jobs in middle class South CA, but sometimes get nice and big homes in Whittier and Beverly Hills. Just got done refinishing the wooden panels in a home in Beverly Hills where some shady Persian restaurant owner lives. He told me he bought the home for 5 Mil and it is worth three times that today. To be honest it was luxurious, but for 15 I would expect more than 3 bedrooms and a swimming pool. Goes to show that it was just a town house or some shit for ballers and Beverly Hills is so fucking over rated, I have seen much better homes in Whittier and the Valley (808) valued between 300k-1m.

Generation X the band, or Coupland's novel? I'm a fan of both, particularly Coupland's work. Def. my favorite fiction writer.
