As someone helpfully pointed out on another thread, it is indeed time for the Communist State of Second Life to hand out another 50 or 500 L$ to we undeserving wastrels, happy to suckle at the teat of Kremlinden Labs. So what will you be spending this bounty on?

Personally, I'm looking for a place where I can spend it on cartons of cigarettes and booze while ignoring my crying prim baby, but I might have to settle for fake Burberry and expensive shoes instead. Also perhaps a widescreen TV. Certainly not upload charges, nope.

So how will the rest of you worthless workshy parasites be spending your money? Extra points if it frustrates the efforts of honest capitalists and promotes socialism and/or idleness!

On some good ol' Victory Gin and my ration of chocolate -- up to 25grams now from 35grams last week! It's doubleplus good!

I Love Big Linden!

Rofl! Tell those who call it welfare to go bitch out the camping chair owners handing out the checks :D

As for me I will be spending the majority of my stippend on uploads so Gov. Linden gets the money right back for the most part. The other 10L go into my friend Vanilla's tip jar, cus she deserves it!

You wouldn't happen to have any spare razor blades, would you?
I'm prolly just gonna let it sit on the stockpile. Any time I have to spend in SL is now going towards dev.

I am simply going to hoard mine.

Perhaps make five hundred little coins with King Philip on one side and a rubber chicken on the other, and dance among them cackling gleefully.

Cashing out my L$50 on the LindeX, thereby devaluing the Linden more.
