How Does The Dude Make a Living?

[Turtle]

Just wondering coz I happen to be unemployed myself, how exactly does the Dude pay his rent, and buy beers and caucasions, etc, etc.

I could use some financial advice here, Dude-style.

Legend has it that in the early drafts of the script the Dude was the heir to the Rubic's Cube fortune. The Coens dropped that later, however.

I myself dabbled in coasting along like the Dude does at one point. Not in 'Nam, of course.

thats fucking interesting, man, thats fucking interesting.

actually the other day i had an epiphany, a business idea came to me, a solid idea, i made a business plan, got most of the website done, but still need a partner or investor to help with the startup or, if partner, then the long term.

i'm broke.

but anyway, i know if i will it, it is no dream.

Dudes income...

Unemployment checks, supplying his buds with the sacred herb, part time work for Walter, Speed of Sound Tour (bunch of assholes), Bowling tournaments, ripping off and reselling rugs...it all adds up to the rent. Just slip it under the door.
