Default BBV, I beg you to help a poor college kid. Here\'s the proposition...

OK. So I'm an 18 year old college kid and I need money. Desperately. So here's my proposition. I make this in full seriousness in appeal to your sympathetic side. I will do any one act, as collectively chosen by the posters in BBV, if said posters collect $1500 amongst themselves to be transfered to my poker account on any poker site. This act is subject to the following conditions:

1) It must be legal, or at least not severely punishable under the law (I don't want to do any jail time lol)
2) No one can be seriously endandered, either in the short term or long term.
3) It obviously must be provable, either by photographs or by video. I will document this act however BBV chooses.
4) Even if the $1500 is collected, I reserve the right to refuse to perform the act as well as change any of these terms at any time. ie, I will not eat a diarrhea milkshake for $1500...well, maybe I will.

I know this proposition has a 99% chance of failing and getting laughed at, but I'm desperate and this is a hardcore last resort. I am basically begging you BBVers, especially those of you high roller for whom $1500 would be like 5BB. Have a little sympathy. You all will hopefully get a good laugh/whatever and I'll get some money that will greatly help me out in my situation. Thank you very much in advance, even if I get flamed into oblivion, which I know I probably will.

dude, no offense but you need help. You should not be so desperate to gamble at your young age or even any age.

Is this really gambling? I wouldn't consider it so.

You think you're getting paid BEFORE the stunt??

Drop the price to $100 and maybe you'll catch some bites

no, i'm really not. i'm roughly break even overall and am nowhere near having a gambling problem (even though I do get pissed sometimes). This has nothing to do with needing money for poker, but rather for school/life/to be able to stay together with a girl i'm in love with (and no, it's not because she's a golddigger/high maintainance/etc...we go to school in different states and need the money to be able to visit her from time to time.) no gambling involved.

i don't exactly know how/when the actual payment would work. ask Kratzer, I am trustworthy. He owed me $10 so he transferred my $60 via party with a promise that I would transfer him $50, which I obviously did. also, $1500 would be collected with just a few bucks (relatively) from a lot of people, which is kind of the point.
