Boomers could literally become rich by being that one guy in the office that can draw half decent.

Like half the stories I hear about how people got their jobs pre 2008 are like "Yeah well I just said I could tell a mean knock knock joke so they gave me a radio show."

This is literally how Scott Dilbert got his start, except he can't even draw.
