I don't just want to be rich; I want to be Andrew Carnegie rich.

Get the Andrew Carnegie mug.
When the rich try to buy back their reputations by donating large amounts of money publicly.
Bob fracked for oil in our community until we had sink holes, then he donated money to build a stadium with his name on it, it’s the definition of Carnegie Syndrome.

Get the Carnegie Mellon mug.
A prestigious university established in 1900 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, famous in the fields of engineering, robotics, and computer science. Known to have a lot of nerds, geeks, Jews, and Asians - this is a nerd school. Tuition is ridiculously high, but most of CMU graduates end up making 6-digit salaries after landing a job.

Generally speaking, both the girls and guys in CMU are rather unattractive and socially awkward. The CFA (College of Fine Arts), however, is a different story. Those girls are hot.
Girl 1: "With the student body ratio being 65% male, a girl's gotta have it great."
CMU Girl 2: "Nah, not really, the odds are good but the goods are odd."
CMU Girl 3: "Welcome to Carnegie Mellon."

CMU Guy 1: "Man, all these fugly engineering and computer science girls in my classes make me wanna turn gay."
CMU Guy 2: "Nah, there's hope, here comes that cute design chick..."
