1 (one) 40 GB Apple iPod: Approximately \$500.
\$500 divided by 50¢ apiece: 1000 people.
Attempting to get 1000 people to PayPal me 50¢ apiece:
Of course, the real question is whether gangsta rappers are going to chip in…
Update: Just to clarify, this isn’t my project — at the moment, I’m quite happy with my 10Gb iPod — rather, this is Phil’s.
I have your 50 cents on the floor of my car, you’re welcome to come pick it up anytime.
(anything to help a friend)
I should note that 50 Cent actually sports an iPod in one of his music videos.
If he kicked in, that would rule.
