I'd think you should be at least a little bit tempted to make a special 
edition Devil Fish with super vintage "tube sound" blue LEDs 
(guaranteed 100% Class A operation), quantum bass enhancing gold 
spraypaint, super "acid crystal" rhinestones and solder infused with 
MDMA, DMT or salvia divinorum, depending on the customer's intended
effect upon the listener.  

No sense busting your ass doing real work when early retirement could 
be that easy right?
