A lot of the guys here get all happy on the first and the 15th of the month because those are paydays. Those poor guys live paycheck to paycheck, because they don't know any better. I know a hell of a lot better. I like the 26th and tenth. Those are the first days I can get an advance on my paycheck.
Today is the tenth.
After a quick trip to Xpress Chex at Boulder and Tropicana, I ride the 107 heading north to Downtown, where everybody knows my name. And if they don't, I'll introduce myself. At the Downtown Transit Center, I am met by some bums looking for a handout. While some people think they're helping these bums by giving them a few bucks, I give them something much more worthwhile. I give them something that will build their spirits and help them accumulate wealth.
