A Life for Sale

· From the 2010–2013 blog

So I'm in a bit of a pickle money-wise. I don't have any, and I like to spend it. I have probably the coolest toys of anyone I know, but no money. A side effect of this new found life plan is I need to sell absolutely everything I own. Because everything that I don't sell is either getting trashed or stored, and I need the money right now way more than the stuff! The first problem I have, is I have absolutely no idea how to sell stuff. I'm spectacularly good at buying, but I've never had anything valuable that I wanted to get rid of before, so... help? I've been told that kijiji is the way to go, so I'm gonna start there when the time comes. But for now I'm making a list with the loot, what I paid for it, and what I think it has depreciated. My engineering brain thinks those are the important parts - but I have absolutely no idea what people are willing to pay for this stuff. I do have to say this is weird though. I've always been a stuff person. always. ask my mother. ask my roommates! but right now in this start-up delirium thing I have going on, nothing else seems to matter. the only thing that matters is the new, the start, and if liquidating my life makes that possible, even for a few days, i think its the right decision. any doctor that gets a hold of this is gonna write me up for some heavy stuff, but that's how I feel. so, I guess, this is a plea to my friends and family. take my junk. give me money. help me chase the dream!
