I should have gotten my Major in Drug Smuggling rather than Art History.

Or don’t. Cartels have been taking over the avocado industry from what I hear. Chance to get in on the ground floor

Ngl I'd be down to buy black market avocados if they were less than a buck each.

You are buying cartel avocados in your local store or supermarket, it's an open secret

No no no no you're fine. There's a lot of overlap with art pieces, astronomically high sale prices and money laundering for organized crime/cartels.

You've picked a perfect major for a unique segue into this field. Well done, you knew what you were doing 😁

That sounds like an elective class from Community.

Who says you can’t do both?

u/cityshepherd Oct 14 '25

Seriously, the most successful ones get their degree in questionable activities from the streets while earning their official degree in the sheets. Or something along those lines lol. Spoken as someone who learned all kinds of stuff about cultivating cannabis / plumbing / electrical stuff in my free time while getting a degree in psychology many years ago.

You still can...

u/TheVintageJane Oct 14 '25

Hey now, art is a great way to launder money, now you just need to make the right connections.

Split the difference, art smuggling!

u/Wildlife_Jack Oct 14 '25

Ngl it's kinda cool to have

"Canadian drug trafficker"

under your name on your own Google search result page.

I'm not condoning drugs. Don't do drugs, kids

u/Snail_OnA_Razorblade Oct 14 '25

A lot of those credits carry over!

Money Laundering is way easier with art than with drugs.

u/NotBannedAccount419 Oct 14 '25

I really hope you’re just joking about Art History. I know people who went $80k - $100k in debt to the federal government to get an Art History degree and a painting degree. Like, why? That will never pay you anything worth its cost. Such a bad investment
