I broached this subject over three years ago in 'Rehab - The New Investment Opportunity'
I knew there was money to be made on this gig and had I had followed through, I could be rich now.
I’m so pi**ed at myself.
Rehab is a bloody goldmine.
Anything can be an ‘addiction’ now. Rehab is the new confession.
I want to open my own rehab. joint. I just have to come up with some new, ludicrous very essential reasons people can blame an ‘addiction’ on in order to escape it as all the current ridiculous ones are taken.
How about:
Rehab for those with bad bar pickup lines
Rehab for those who just ‘can’t find the time to exercise’
Rehab for those who can’t stop buying expensive handbags and shoes
Rehab for those who say stupid things on Facebook
Rehab for those who eat fast food (Oh wait, that one might already be taken)
Rehab for those who pee in the shower
Rehab for those who secretly drink cheap wine
Rehab for those who can’t get out of Costco without spending too much
Rehab for poorly dressed participants at awards shows
Rehab for those who pay too much for their mobile phone service
Rehab for those who watch reality shows
Rehab for those that have dirty houses
Rehab for those who went on embarrassing dates
Rehab for those who pick their noses
Rehab for those who drive too fast, oh, and a good one, how about those who drive when texting? Think of the income that could generate.
How about those who say dumb things when drunk, or better yet, dance on tables?
The list is really endless.
I think I may open my rehab facility and as an added bonus, include free gay rehab for those who haven’t come out yet (remember, I can ID you).
Anytime, anywhere, anybody gets caught doing anything they didn’t want known, they could go to my very own rehab center in order to be completely blame free.
Just remember, if you go to rehab, IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT.
ww - oooh, nice idea! I like it.
I wonder though if maybe an 'addiction discount' might help generate clients too.
How about those who treat their dogs like their children and even mistakenly call their dog by their sons name, and vise versa? (Sorry Joel, I mean Ace, I mean Joel...oh darn, I'm confused now.)
WLW - sounds like an addiction that is sure to be treated by rehab.
You're on to something, Kristine. How about Rehab for members of the Tea Party organization
Rehab for people who litter
Rehab for people who don't bathe often enough
and on and on and on and on.........
I think I would even pay for some people to attend some of these rehabs!
Thank goodness we don't need to go into rehab! :)!!!
How about Rehab for those who drink cheap wine, while using bad pickup lines at the bar, then 'drunk text' using their overpriced mobile service while driving home to watch reality TV in their dirty house? You can charge by the offense. One client, many fees. Cha Ching $$$
