Ahh, I vividly remember really looking forward to snowstorms back in my teens for many reasons.  

1)  School closing
2)  Falling snow was like falling money into my pockets.  I would shovel so many neighbors driveways/walks, it meant more hard drives, upgraded modems, and whatever other tech I wanted at the time.

I worked (3) jobs at the same time in my High School years.  I had a lawn service that I started when I was 13, I delivered newspapers each day, and painted apartments during summer break during the day.  

That is how I paid for all my computers, storage, modems, phone line, etc back in the teenage years.
