    I think the most cash I've ever had on me was around $500 that I got when I cashed out unused vacation time from working at Target.

    Pooro you are a tard for two reasons:
    1. You are walking around carrying thousands of dollars worth of stuff on your person

    2. You actually had the stupidity to try to fight with dudes like that

    1. Had no choice.

    2. Didn't try to fight - never threw a punch, never shoved. Just refused to be intimidated by retards.

    Oh come on Pooro, of course you had a choice.

    I love you doggie, but you could have gotten yourself stabbed.

    I had no other way to get home from the airport in a manner cheap enough to pay rent tomorrow.

    Though I guess that's a moot point now.

    My buddy made the stupid mistake three years ago of going to the ATM outside a bank, taking out five hundred bucks for his rent, then walking down the street with it.

    Of course, dudes were watching, and quite literally put him in the hospital.

    my mom did that once, was withdrawing money from out of an ATM outside of the bank, in her car

    when she got the money a guy walked up and pointed a gun at her and told her to give her the money


    except instead of giving him the money she sped off and told me not to do that ever

    edit: I wasn't in the car with her, but she told me the story when she got home.

    in retrospect i was pretty careless with my money and am surprised i was never mugged

    when i had a good job i used to walk around with 600-1000 dollars in my poket at any given time because i hate banks

    then again i did live in Utah

    Wow dude. I guess all i can offer up is Im glad you are ok. Thats always something I try and figure when i am walking down a street. My car is litteraly packed with electronics and my wallet. My 360, laptop, externalHD, books but its all in my trunk. I make sure whatever street i park on, if i have no choice that no one is watching me open my trunk.

    And I travel from LA to SF a lot so I pack it in. But Hey I am glad you are not hurt man. Never been mugged but jesus


    I laughed so hard at coolbirds post. In the back of my mind

    the world has a severe lack of people who are willing to stand up and defend their shit

    the only reason muggers even work is because 90% of people will just give up their shit when threatened

    Man, see, that is what I was thinking.

    And just a couple of days ago, I was drinking with a friend and pondering how we'd react in life-threatening situations. Turns out I don't give a fuck. Stone cold pro.

    One time me and my dad were walking in town at noon when some guy (who looked like he was on meth) points a knife at my dad and yells "gimmie your fucking money" but this dude looked real weak, and my dad is quite strong, so my dad just stood there, not saying anything and glaring at the dude. The mugger started trembling and ran away.

    they can still be caught easily unless you disappear, then it will just take a bit longer

    and i'd rather stand a 1% chance of keeping everything i like a 98% chance to keep everything but be really injured and a 1% chance of those guys getting death penalty because i am the dumbest

    Man how would anyone react to this. I mean, okay. You could be sarcastic and try and talk your way out of it. But, risk getting stabbed. them running away and police finding no evidence or way to find these guys if they have no preirs

    or

    Just giving up all your shit. Have them say, Peace and walk away. You could chase them but then what. They are three guys. They will kick your ass.

    Damn that is a serious call

    Damn that is a serious call

    2 guys, 3 blocks

    and there is no prefect crime

    that and the fact that one of the guys was holding him leaving prints and everything

    I'd say it's a pretty open shut case

    the hard part is finding them

    which is relatively easy

    If you're an easily cowed homo the best defense is to start soliciting the thugs for oral sex. I mean, thats what that dude did in Florida.

    It's 85 bucks. Even if there's a one in a thousand chance the guy is stupid enough to stab you, that's bad odds.
