Take advantage of it ; show him what you have, with a threat of imminent exposure, unless he pays you 10k.

rofl at the size joke.  I agree with you - higher learning institutions breed elitism, but there is also plenty of 'looking down' between institutions. I didn't attend Yale because I'm too poor to afford it. Beating top-tier university students in debate competitions, however, apparently is 'rigged' or 'stupid' if you're not from one, as per the top-tier university students themselves. :\


hmm speaking of Yale. I believe the crown princess of Sweden went there and that was on the expense of the Swedish taxpayers, as usual. So you see how things work in this "beautiful" world of ours... I guess I have just been thinking waay too much lately thanks to this cold shitty weather :rolleyes:
I once had ambitions of obtaining an academic degree and went almost half way through it but then I figured out that it was mostly because my family talked me into it and this stupid pressure on me that I had to be like everyone one else in my family. So in the end I just gave up everything and trying to live a carefree life without anyone telling me what to do. I guess it's a bit childish and irresponsible but some ppl just like to do things their own way and figure things out on their own.

btw how much do you have to pay to attend Yale? I thought you are quite wealthy with all the cameras and computers and cars and all.

I was quoted 32k/semester.

I come from a very poor family, and all cameras/lenses were earned largely thorugh photo work (although I did start with school loan money). I only have work computers (3), and I have a buick 98 regal as my forms of transportation.

I had a notion to buy it, but instead I bought a 70-200 2.8 for $800. How is it?
