Yes, there's lots of doom and gloom out there in the real world, but in my Spam Box there are opportunities aplenty to amass a fortune without having to expend any effort.  

Just today, I was offered 7 jobs that will garner me the arbitrary amount of $1540 per week.  Three will generate $147 per day.  And, if I decide that being conscious while working is too much trouble, I can make "$1,000 per week while I sleep."

Two emails indicate that perfect strangers, without any input from me as far as qualifications go, have found me employment. And amazingly, no less than BILL GATES himself "wants to help me make a living from home."  This is great news.

And another 7 messages promote job training for careers as varied as radiology and truck driving. (What ever happened to matchbook covers?).

Surprisingly, only one Nigerian billionaire today graced my spambox with his generosity and horrendous English, being inadvertently forthright with his intentions; "Dear Sir or Madame; E.LoansandFinancialServices is offering a floating loan scheme," scheming to loan me from $5,ooo to $2,000,000 in exchange for some personal information.  Note to AIG - why don't you work out a deal with these Nigerian orphans and widows who can't get their $20 million out of the country?  I'm sure you can make some arrangements with their Scroogish government.

Thirteen entities want to give me quick cash, in most cases $1,000 or $1500, to relieve my debt; which is rather counterintuitive unless you're in really deep debt, then you probably don't know what counterintuitive means.  Let's say I took DebtCorp or DebtHelp or DebtRescue or EndYourWorries up on their offers.  Then I'd be indebted to them, wouldn't I?  On top of everyone else.  That's what counterintuitive means.

There were 26 messages flogging deals of some kind or another.

8 with advice on beauty and/or weight loss.

One divorce lawyer offering his services, which brings me to;

Two men or women want to have a fling with me; though one pic was of some sexy women barely clad, and I'm not gay, so that was a perfect waste of an email.  And FinallyFoundYou indicated that someone has been searching for me.  But for the life of me, I can't figure out why I'd have to pay for someone else to look for me, particularly if that person from my past is a stalker-looser who I'd probably pay to keep away from me.
