Where are the Jedi getting all this money? Jedi Marketing Endorsements?

The Jedi have to have some source of income, right? They have to have money for food and cloths, and not to mention all their fancy ships and special gear. And you have to figure that the operational costs for some 100 Jedi to fight the war have been very high.

Before the NJO, you might have argued that the Republic takes care of their costs. But since their ties with the NR have proven often uncomfortable and even hostile since the Vong invasion, where the hell are they getting all this money? Do they take donations? Part time jobs on the side? Confiscations from pirates and such, maybe? Would any of that be enough?

Could there perhaps be a conspiracy at work here...?

 

Private contributors, Luke's personal haul (commercials ), and my favorite, direct withdrawal.

Jacen: *waves hand* I'd like to make a withdrawal.

 

Endorcements:

Jacen after coming back with a big bushy beard:

"There are some things you just don't want to cut with a lightsaber. That's why I use the Sorosuub 2100 multi-blade vibrorazor. Nothing cuts closer or smother than a Sorosuub. Not even pure energy. Buy yours today!"

 

And Jaina selling Midol?

*ducks*

 

I swear, every time I start a thread... Do any non-WJFCers have a response?

 

Well, we are usually the only ones up this late, most likely plotting our collective take overs of the...oh, well, I'll just let everyone find that out when it happens.

 

yes, sometimes senate regulars reply. other than that, no.

 

You guys have it easy, you're on the west coast.

I, however, am on the east coast.

It's nearing 3 am here. I should be asleep.

 

yeah but when we get up in the moring, we find everyone has already done their moring posting and is either at school or work. it's a tradeoff either way.

 

True, but I'm in the same boat.

I'm acclimated to West Coast time, have been for a couple years now, ever since moving back from Germany.

I used to wake up at 6 am, and go to bed at 12 midnight.

Now it's 9 am - 3 am.

I'm on PST man!

 

Stop abusing my perfectly relevant thread, spammers!

 

since no one else is going to post in it anyway, why shouldn't we spam it?

 

Many apologies wise one.

Anyway, I wonder what other types of endorsements they have.

 

See, this is a problem with living in Australia. It's only 4:46 in the afternoon here now, and everyone everywhere else is practically in bed! The best time for me to post is before school in the morning, when everyone overseas is still around.

 

quik lexu! use your mystical vip powers and change the title of the thread to something about Jedi Marketing Endorcements. you'll get plenty of people in here.

 

Yeah, that'd get people in here.

Then again, a cool, funny title like that will just mark this as a WJFC thread...which it already is, so it can't hurt.


Tekli can promote Band-aids.

 

Come on, mrslush50, come over and continue the Muffin War in the WSFC! Sorry lexu, I'm just bored.

//retreats from thread...

 

ok now that is deffinatly spam. go yell at him lexu.

 

Lol, Tekli promoting band-aids...



That's pretty good, finding something funny that is still on-topic.

 

That was on topic?

Damn, I need to try harder!

Anyway, after Duro, everyone could endorse various head raps or wigs.

 

Ganner could be a fitness model

 

Ganner probably lost them alot of money when Monty Python sued for copyright infringment for that whole "None Shall Pass" deal.

 

monty python? don't you mean J.R.R.?

 

No. Monty Python did the Black Knught who said "None Shall Pass!"

Tolkien had the Wizard who said, "You Shall Not Pass!"

There is a difference.


On topic: Han, at his worst, could endorse a multitude of alcoholic beverages.

 

yeah but the black knight got all his limbs choped off. i think that the comparison to Gandalf was the one that the author was trying to make.
