Let's read the following, do not take it too serious if you are Californian. Actually, our Illinoisian are going to be next.
Dear Californians,
It sucks to be you today, though our weather here in NYC is awful so you might have it better on that front. Nevertheless, a lot of you who in some way are connected to the state are getting paid in IOUs. Some banks will accept them on a case-by-case basis, but good luck buying groceries with them, or paying your auto loan or even your rent.
The good news is that one (1) of you will get some cash today, courtesy of Clusterstock! We're offering to pay one (1) of you $500 (can be via PayPal) for $1,000 worth of bona fide, California state-issue IOUs, provided we can work out the transaction.*
We think $.50 on the dollar is a fair price, and we've love to buy more, but we don't want to be overwhelmed by you desperate Californians looking to unload your worthless paper for our valuable paper (you know, the kind we use in New York, the money capital of the world. It's green, in case you've forgotten. It doesn't tear easily and it's hard to counterfeit. In short, real money is pretty awesome, and if we were you, we'd be happy to get our hands on some)
So send us an email and we'll see what we can work out.
Take it as a joke to laugh for your holiday.
Besure read NY times, they have graphical form to tell you about 30 states are having their budget problem for next fiscal year.
