No Such Thing as a Free XBOX360

I don’t have $400. I’m shocked when I just have $40 dollars. And because I tend to be shocked at that small amount in my wallet, then there’s no way for me to get an XBOX360 without either working really hard (as if!) or winning a contest (I get to watch movies and interview celebrities for a living so I think I’ve pretty much exhausted all my available luck) or doing some online pyramid scheme where I convince people to sign up to sign up to get an item through my link (in this case http://www.3604free.com/index.php?ref=3872949) and then they complete some advertising offer and then usually cancel about a week later. Well, I’ve been doing this for well over a month and it doesn’t look like I’m gonna get my 360. I usually propose a trade where someone on one site will complete a referral for me and I’ll complete a referral for someone on a site of their choosing. Eventually, you run out of offers (some require a little bit of money, but after a while, all those $10 offers start to add up) and then you find that you’re basically fucked since you’ve completed five of the offers but you’re just not going to find those three more you need.

So I learned an expensive lesson and while my dickbag of a friend Carl enjoys his 360, I’ll realize that I just helped perpetuate a system that doesn’t really work that well and I have nothing to show for it. Live and learn.
