I know how to make millions of $$

[skybytch 273]

I figured it out. I now know how to make millions of dollars.

I'm going to publish college textbooks. At $107 for one thin paperback book, I'll be disgustingly fucking rich in no time at all.

I'm in! And remember, we can come out with a "new edition" every semester, thus making the prior one obsolete!

I have a teacher who is the author of the ONLY book he requires in the class.

Ive gotten by without it so far

I like the way you think.

It's going to take a few days before sitting down is comfortable again after the ass-fucking I just got at the college bookstore. Just to make it worse, the main campus doesn't have enough parking for all the students in all the classes they offer so I got to park 2 miles away and walk to and from my anal raping. I'm so happy my classes are all at the satellite campus.

Even better, I still have to make another trip there to buy another $100 book... that is, if my fucking financial aid ever comes through.

Can someone please remind me that this will all be worth it in a few years?

I wonder when Text Book Publishers and Professors are finally going to forget about Publishing Books and go electronic.

I quit publishing Manuals for my Software years ago (400 page User Guide and 600 Page System Managers Guide) because I had to reprint the Docs every couple months due to updates and changes to the software. I was getting $330 a set for the Books but still loosing money.
Now I just send out PDF`s. The customer can Print them if they want or even better, Leave them in electronic format so that they more easily search the documents.

Seems like Text Books would work this way too and save everyone lots of money.

Yes you would still have to pay the publisher but Printing and shipping costs would be eliminated.

Degrees. Cultural Anthropology and History.

I'm obviously not going to school so I can get a really high paying job. But that's okay, cuz I discovered today how to make millions of dollars.

That's just the beginning of the rip-off. Then at the end of the semester, you buy them back from the students for 50% of the new value, and re-sell them "used" for the next semester at 75%, marketed as "25% Off!"

As a general rule, the better it felt when you said it, the more trouble it's going to get you into.

Screw the college bookstore. Amazon and ebay are your friends.

Seriously she's got a great point. Amazon & eBay usually have all the books you need. Granted you're given your list in time to take advantage of those tools.

There are several sites for used text books. karen's been getting them at a fraction of the price, and has only had to buy 1 new at this point....

Yeah, I buy most of my books through amazon or ebay, and then I sell them back through amazon at pretty close to the same price I paid for them (except for the books that I keep). Not a bad deal...

That's how you do it. Ideally, you would have your homework problems in the book and change them every time you do the class.

THAT is how you make the money.
