NEW RULES!
**DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS**
**Object of the game: Try to think of the most popular answer,** to get the most people matching you. Google is allowed, if you desire. Only answers that are “serious” will be scored. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players. Also, don’t try to score a zero, even with “serious” answers.
New formatting rules:
If they are not followed, your entire post will be **DISQUALIFIED**.
1. answer
2. answer
3. answer
4. answer
Make your list look like the one above. No double spacing. No periods (except for the one following the number.) No quote marks, no punctuation if it is not necessary! No smilies! No extraneous bullshit is allowed. If you feel you must qualify your answer, do it **AFTER THE LIST**!
The reason this is so important is because I cut and paste all the answers, and I have to edit each answer to make them identical. It is a lot of work, so please make it easier on me. Thanks.
Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.
If any of you have ideas for Feuds -_and would like me to score them_- PM me and I’ll get you on [The List.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=10778971&postcount=82)
The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at **3:30 PM Central** on Monday, 03/02/09 whichever comes first.
Good luck!
**Remember, new formatting rules are in effect. Follow the rules!**
1. Name a large expense incurred by most people at some point in their lives besides a home or a motor vehicle.
2. Name a currency that is not called a “Dollar.”
3. Name something that is individually cheap but that costs a household a lot of money because so much of it must be purchased.
4. Name a household chore rich people pay to have done but middle class people do themselves.
5. To the nearest quarter million, how much money would the average American need to win in a lottery (after taxes) to never have to work again?
6. Name a person famous for being very rich who is now dead.
7. Name a fictional character famous for being rich.
8. Name a living person famous for being rich.
9. Name a place someone might hide cash in their homes.
10. Name something that would be used as currency if the world fell apart into a Mad Max-like anarchy and there weren’t any governments to back up paper money.

Crap! If only I’d said “Scrooge” but not specified _which one_, I would be in far better shape.

That’s not too bad. I put freakin’ Paris Hilton for number 8. That’s going to kill me.
