You overestimate me. I use sarcasm tags.
Clearly, the timeshare thing was stupid, and no you're not a douche for bringing it up. Viable point, and the point's taken. However, I can't imagine what else he'd use the money for in the future. Now I wouldn't go out and buy videogames personally. I'd do something more constructive with the money -- for instance, I need some tools to work on a few projects I've been meaning to do (biquad dish antenna, lcd projector, nerd stuff galore). I'm just an opportunist, that's all. Sitting around with money in your pocket doesn't advance life any better than watching grass grow. Gotta live, even if just for a little bit. Everything must be within reason, though.
