This little hobby is killing me slowly. When i look at my collection i just count the number and think wow i have dropped alot of money into this. Lately i been budgeting my money based on how many muggs i can afford. What do you guys do for a job to be able to afford these little guys.
I work operations for a hospital IT department. not to stressful but i get paid well for doing pretty much nothing

I get money from doing my sisters chores... >_> It's about 40$ a week, and that money goes to comics and Muggs.

Well I just graduate from college and I'm living off of funds I made over the past few years. Muggs certainly don't help with my videogame addiction either....
I wanted to collect the whole marvel line...but seeing as Muggs probably won't stop for a long time to come...I think I'll just selectively choose the ones I like. ;D

I afford them by being this and WoW the only thing I spend my entertainment fund on.
And the occasional DS/Wii game
I work as a graphic designer for the Army in order to get said money though :-p

We have a contract with a Foreign Power to reverse engineer the Muggs, equip them with RFID chips and low frequency radio transmitters that will subdermally transmit messages to the purchaser (picked up through the mastoid bone in the ear and "felt" in the neocortex of the brain) as hidden suggestions to make additional purchases, causing a complete breakdown in willpower and inability to resist the purchase of these products (i.e. Muggs). Ok... I lied. It did sound rather silly, didn't it. It wasn't a Foreign Power .... it's Hasbro.. It's called Subliminal User Reactive Environment or..... SURE.........  (it's the reason why there's this compulsion to buy more ... you should see what happens when we press the BLUE button ..... shhh.....) |

You must be new at the job. They usually don't advertise much. (It scares away the targets!) |
