Potential Career: Furby Insurance Salesman

While I was looking for a battery for my car online (the battery is totally corroded, with the casing cracked), my wife observed:

"Car companies know how to make money. They sell you a product that contains lots of hidden costs: replacement parts, repair fees, gas, insurance, etc. You just need to invent a produce that needs to be fed, insured, and so on."

Me: "Hmm... [something like elaborate] beanie babies, furbies..."

Wife: "Furby Insurance!"

Me: "I can see it now--my business card will read, 'Furby Insurance Salesman!'"

Hey, it's odd insights like this that change the world! :-)
