Zen and the Art of Scalping...

Today, in a fit of cyber related boredom, I ventured onto my old cyber hangout inthemix. In the mix is known for large discussions of utter trash, which is the kind of thing you would expect from a massive group of MDMA consumers.

Anyways, today's deep today thought was on being a scapler. I'd never really thougth about being a scalper, primarily because it's illegal. However when I see things like this:

it makes me seriously consdier it as a viable source of alternative (tax free) funds.

Seriously look at that guys sales, page after page of scalped ticket. Let's assume 50-100 profit per sale, and that's a nice wad of extra cash.

I dont think it would be that hard to pull of in Australia, especially over the Summer period. Big dance events like Field Day, BDO etc always sell out.

From an ethical standpoint I see nothing wrong with it. Honestly whats the diference between the guy that bought business.com for $10 bucks, and then sold it for a couple million and a scapler who buys a ticket cheap and sells it at a profit. Both were just quick to the scene. Ethically both people did exactly the same thing.

Tragically though, Summer is dying now in Australia so it will be a wile beore any of the "sure payoff" events come around.

Ah, another idea to add to the heap.
