My new career as a male model (if only I could turn left)

I’m thinking of a career move into male modeling. My only problem?

I can’t turn left. I’m not an ambiturner.

The good news is that modeling the shirts I got from Lending Club didn’t require any runway moves (or left turns).

Lending Club
was kind enough to give me a bunch of shirts to give away, and boy did I have fun with the camera. Don’t worry I only modeled one shirt. So unless you really want a t-shirt worn by me, the ones I’m giving out here will be untouched!

This is my first “give-away” and I’m pretty excited about it.

Get your free T-Shirt + 25 bucks in 2 steps

1. Sign up as a lender at Lending Club

It only takes a few minutes and if you use the banner below, you’ll receive a $25 bonus to get you started.

2. Leave a comment on this post

Don’t just leave a lame, “pick me” comment. Let’s be more creative here. Lending Club is looking for more T-shirt slogans, beyond their current “Dude, get a loan” and “we are all bankers”.

So….leave a comment with a slogan! The top two slogans (judged by yours truly) will win a shirt of their choice. Then I’ll use a random number generator to pick 6 winners at random!

Thanks for helping me out

Please sign up before leaving a comment, that way I’ll earn some cash to cover shipping costs and the like. I’m up to $625 in my Lending Club account from referrals. I’m hoping that I’ll be over $1000 after this T-shirt giveaway. Then I’ll have the first good chunk of an emergency account.

The shirts are pretty sweet (and from American Apparel). Check out my modeling pictures below.

What do you think? Have I found a new career?

At one time in my life a group of pre-teen Japanese exchange students mistook me for Leonardo (this was right around “Titanic”). No Joke.

Both T-shirts have the same Lending Club logo on the front. On the back there is a California specific shirt…(”Dude, get a loan”)

The second shirt has the slogan (which I like better), “We are all bankers”

I have a bunch more….but I’ll spare you.

Now, sign up as a lender (and get your $25 bonus), leave a comment, and you can win a shirt!

I already have my lending club accounts set up or I would have signed up with you. This post is funny and cute so I have no doubt you would get folks to sign up with this.

I signed up for LendingClub off of your first mention of the referral program using your link… I now have 2k on there. This month I received my first two payments, pretty exciting. I found LC to be a nice extra diversification for me, thanks again. As for slogans… I don’t know.. Something using P2P… and nerdy… like torrents, but with money.

I don’t need a loan or a t-shirt. But I will say someone has been working out and it shows. If only my niece and you lived in the same town I would definitely hook you up with her. She needs a nice hard-working guy like you who has pecs to boot….

You actually do look hot in that shirt. Any chance you’re thinking of moving to England in the near future? Or have an equally fit debt-free brother who might?

A slogan? How about “I’ll scratch your back…”

Yeah, I know, it sucks.

@the1chery – Thanks! (blushing)

@Jonathan, thanks for signing up! Maybe something like “a torrent of money” OK, that kinda sucks….

@Krnico – lol….um, shucks, thanks I may not have a gym membership at the moment….but last time I checked (aka…this morning) push-ups are free!

@plonkee – I actually have always wanted to live in London for a year! I do have a debt-free brother! I’ll let him know :)

Gotta say… looks like you have a HOT chest in that pic. You’ve been working out!

Certainly would not toss you out of bed :) (Maybe around tho!)
