A simple question that my professor asked the class today in sociology.

I said burning it. He told the class to think deeper and have more answers for next class in a week from today.

Apparently there is a better way of wasting money than burning it. Beats me. Any one got any ideas?

Spending it doing something pointless when it could be spent doing something to help people (ie government)

That's what I was thinking, but exactly what is considered pointless.

Buying 100 million balloons and letting them go free in a field? That's pretty pointless.

Buy lottery tickets, drive an SUV, start a war in Iraq, etc.

Putting it on one debit card and giving it to a 16 year old girl that lives in Palm Springs.

Paying someone to burn your money.

Not only are you losing the money being burnt...but you're paying someone to burn it for you.

There are 3 ways to waste money :
- Gambling
- Women
- Technocrats

Gambling is the fastest method, women is the funniest and technocrats is the most efficient.

(roughly translated from Michel Audiard, french legendary dialogues writer.)

Gambling isn't the fastest method, since it takes time and you may win. My idea however is the most efficient way of wasting money, buy lots of napalm, buy lots of land in a desert, take out all your money (in cash) and napalm it on your land

Sounds like a good method to me. What about combining a few of the other members ideas to yours.

Pay someone else, or preferably a lot of people, to napalm it for you.

He wants you to go deeper.

I would tell him the most efficient way to waste money would be to donate 75% of your income to Social Security and to the IRS and not keep records of it. Then at the end of the year you would have to pay the remaining 25% in taxes.
