For those out there thinking they want to be a tattoo artist because it's such a great cash cow, check out this story. A North Carolina newspaper is featuring families via the Salvation Army that need help providing their kids with Christmas this year. Tattoo artist, Anthony, and his family are one of the families recently featured. Here's a small excerpt from the article:

“With so many tattoo parlors here, it is spread thin,” he said. “We are not guaranteed to make enough money each month, and it gets hard. It seems like a new shop opens up every month.”

I do not know these people. I don't know where Anthony works or if he's a good tattoo artist. But I do know that every child deserves a good Christmas. They have three children, including a 7-month-old baby. Even if you're not in North Carolina, if you are in a position to help this family out and send the kids some stuff for Christmas, please contact the Salvation Army at (910) 922-5828 between 10 a.m. and noon or 2 and 4 p.m. Ask to adopt family No. 34476.
