If you put them 'under the lights' and asked them to explain banking and finance, they couldn't get to first base. There is a 21 year old female in my husband's family who didn't get a college loan but got a lottery scholarship which requires repayment if they don't keep their grades up. It also included a nice amount of cash for housing and food, as well. She suddenly turned into a hotshot-genius. The first thing she did with the cash was go out and buy herself a new car; the nice 2004 Nissan Altima that her mom paid cash for, just wasn't good enough for her to ride in. She used the money she made working at Pizza Hut to make car payments and lived in her mom's basement. She started partying and stayed drunk from Friday night until Monday morning instead of studying. She not only flunked, she got kicked out of college and her mom kicked her out of the basement. Now the Lottery people are demanding their money back. I heard she's moved up into the big corporate world and is now working at Chuck-E-Cheese and living with a Mexican illegal whose job is to ask "Would you like fries with that?" I sure hope the sperm bank dries up before they reproduce.
