Everything is Sweeter When Money Is At Stake

Brackets got you down? Parity of this year's NCAA season got you confused? Choosing between your alma mater (you homer) and the logical choice? Torn between the potential matchups? Wake Forest vs Louisville. Duke vs 'Nova. Florida State vs Pitt. Duke vs Pitt. Do you have the balls to call FSU over Pitt? I sure as hell don't. This tournament is a free for all.

Alas, in three weeks I'll be sitting despondent because FSU did beat Pitt and I did pick my school...despite its recent track record. But it's okay, because I can always look at the bracket of income, where there are no winners and losers. Actually, I take it back. There are losers. Because my school isn't on here. Damn't, Louisiana state school system. (much like porn, click image to make larger)
So when you're team gets ousted in the tournament two rounds too early, you can always fall back on some good old fashioned elitism. Their team may be better, but you'll be making 6 figures...in 5-15 years. Just remember to discount for the time value of money.
