Here are a few ways I can think of for some of our financialy challenged pilots, or the youg'ns out thar.
1. Quit smoking (this would give me 2 AH accounts a month (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
2. Cut 2 yards a month, or one large corner lot a month.
3. Work an extra .5 hrs a day at work.
4. (for the college students) Stop drinking so much damned beer! Your in school to learn a trade, not learn how to bounce a quarter in a glass!
To those out there who won't play because of the $30/mnth.... What the heck!!?!?!?! 30 bucks is freakin easy man! even when I was poor, I could get my mitts on 30/mnth no prob.
To those who think $30 is too much..... As much as I play AH, I'm only paying about $0.25-$0.50 /hr and that's cheap compaired to brand W.
I don't need 2 weeks, I'm sending them 6 months in advance, then I don't have to think about it (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Need money? Try some of those pay for surfing banner programs. Heck, I don't do a thing but I get $12.50 a month with Alladvantage.com. Use my I.D. as a referal and I can give you a great patch to surf while sleeping. My I.D. is EMQ-728. I hope this helps some of you "fence" people. Aces High is such a great flight sim.......I don't spam for Alladvantage, but I want to help the people who need the extra money or now you can tell the wife the Internet is paying for Aces High!

Here's some Ideas.. if yer desperate fer cash.
Raid yer granma's house once a month for recylables. ("..don't think the wheelchair is recylable; junior")
Get into the drug buisness. (Not the illegal stuff.. the legit stuff they're pummeling us with in TV ads. Hey.. anybody got a connection fer Viagra?)
Pet Grooming. (calif residents should wear surgical gloves while trimming gerbils)
Dog Walking. (my wife needs some exercise; and I have a leash that'll fit.. one hour with her on a rope is worth a lot more than you'll get paid)
Flight Model beta tester. (pays crummy but yah meet some interesting fish(u))
Assasin (some skill required for repeat buisness.. for tips on the 'trade' watch Grosse Pointe Blank)
Part Time Postal Service employee. (refine your 'going postal' technique)
Sheep Herder (HiTech may be hiring)
There's a bounty on chute shooters... (worth about the same as a rat pelt in Wisconsin)
Thirty bucks ain't much.. hell; I can drink that in twenty minutes; and college wuz thirty years ago fer me. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I'm forgoing picking up a take-out order of two bagels with a large coffee, on the way to work, several days a week. From now on it's brew it or grab it from the cupboard at home or do without.
In the long run I'll save more money! Each time I swing through that drive thru it's $5.00! All I have to do is skip two days each week to come up with AH fare. And to beat it all I figure in several months time I won't be an old, fat, balding bastard. I'll be proud to be just an old, balding RICH bastard (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

For those of you who (Like me) are stupid enough to smoke in UK...
one pack is 4£, right (I can now hear the Yanks laughing 'till here (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) yes about 6US$ a pack...)
Now, that's only 5 packs less a month...
AH is healthy for you !

I have an easy solution for this, but eh.. it goes against the logic: Quit being online so much.
You guys should see my phone bills.. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/eek.gif)
But theres no logic then, how can I play if I am not online.. eh? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
