Dear Brady, how can I get a great-paying job in a good location where I love going to work every day?

I pondered this while watching late-night television, and the answer came to me as quickly as a Jack LaLanne juicer shipped straight from the factory: you should start an infomercial. Those folks sell the best, most useful stuff …ever invented, and at the lowest prices we can imagine! You haven’t by chance invented a great system to make money through real estate or free government money, have you?

The other option, of course, is to become a nun. They throw money around like it was going out of style.
