Had a brief stint as a cell phone tower climber...dangerous as sh*t, but I made enough on one job to buy PS3 3 times over cause of it's high liability...I even had a life insurance policy that came out of my pay...but I still had enough for it three times over...when it actually came down to getting a PS3...it wasn't even a hard sell...I have so much money in the bank from that.

Saving money while working a summer job. Part went to fund classes, part to rent, and part to my general fund, which I use for videogames and booze.

I won the lottery. A little over a year ago, I won about $2,000 from a scratch off card, and since there was nothing I wanted, I saved it for a PS3 (and a Wii).

I traded in my PS2 plus like 25 PS2 games, also 3 PSP games. I also traded in 2 wireless controllers, 2 memory cards, and a few other accessories i cant remember. But even with all of that, i still had to pay $330, well worth it though

I sold that piece of crap that Microsoft calls a gaming console. A console should have to work for more than a couple of months at a time to be considered as such. I'm happy with my PS3 now :D !!
