Dear Author,

First off, let me thank you for the way you’ve handled the economy. Everyone I’ve ever read always approaches it from the perspective of homeowners, job holders, and other overachievers. Thank you for keeping it real.

My question is this: having invested my money in a balanced portfolio of malt liquor, cheap wine, and other liquid assets, is there any way I could continue to bypass employment and just live off the interest?

Sincerely,

George Wellfeller, Central Park, NYC

George,

You present an interesting problem. How does a person who has basically spent every dollar on alcoholic beverages, wrangle a profit from such an investment?

Fortunately for you, and those like you, the U.S. government is already on the case. Thanks to the Federal Department of Intoxicant Commodification and their willingness to underwrite a network of small, privately owned alcohol exchanges, you may yet stave off the clutches of personal industry.

Liquor Bank

FDIC – Keeping Spirits High and the Market for Spirits Higher.

Originally created to subsidize failing savings and loan institutions, the FDIC is always on the lookout for a losing cause. They are currently backing liquor layaway plans and small self-distillation-kit loans and are expected to soon branch out into the burgeoning blood plasma market.

Thank you George for your question, it is always good to see someone putting those wi-fi soup kitchens to good use.

Don’t be bearish, the fundamentals are sound on the entire Buck-O-Quest series.

At last I can stop keeping those collector’s bottles of Lucky Lager under the mattress. My back is killing me.

Question: If I need to make a withdrawal after business hours, how will the ATM handle the process?

I had no idea that handling liquid assets could be so easy. Just another way that the OminousComma is looking out for us. Thank you.

Just in time for my new invention! An adapter for the
self-distillation-kit for mounting to a 50 gal burn barrel.

My main issue with my portfolio is that here in Alaska I can’t make a withdrawal until after 10 AM (12 on Sundays.) Does the FDIC plan to address that?
