Anyone want to do a GFY pool? No rent money allowed - spend only what you're happy to spend for the entertainment.

The lady has a pool at her work. She asked if she should go in. I'm like you have to when it's that big of a prize. There is no way you don't want to be the one person that wasn't in on it for the 1 in 2390482309482 chance they win. That's a tough one to get over. I handed her 10 bucks this morning when she left for work.
When it gets to this amount I always toss a couple bucks at it too.
