Buzzfeed recently published a list of retro toys that are worth a few bucks today. As long as your Furby is still in mint condition, you could make about $500. Still have that old GameBoy Advanced? Congratulations! You could collect $5,000 for your gem on eBay. But the piece-de-resistance is the Nintendo 64.

My heart almost stopped when I saw a figure of $13,840.55 for the gaming system BRAND NEW. Now, I would not consider my 15 year old video game system to be brand new. But I'm sure it would be worth some chunk of change...IF I STILL HAD IT! Unfortunately, my mother was tired of having the "junk" just lying around unused, so she DONATED it. Looks like there's no easy way to get around student loans. Excuse me while cry in the fetal position.
