It's this simple: have a great morning at Ponce Inlet. Proceed to Daytona Beach. Take your boyfriend's $200 camera out to said beach. Wait long enough for high tide. Then have wave wash up on beach getting the camera both wet & sandy.
Then in a desperate attempt to resolve the issue, spend 10 minutes in car trying to wipe away every bit of sand, turn it on to make sure it's still functioning and have the lense not retract when turn off.
Later boyfriend will tell you of importance of not turning on electronics when they are wet.
Walk away feeling like an idiot and realizing there is absolutely nothing you can do to rectify the situation. But just in case offer your life savings which amounts to a measly $75, which doesn't even pay for half of the camera.
End fun. Start not so fun.
Now that i think about it, and after having 3 days to think about it, turning tricks on the corner (per N's suggestion) may not be a half bad idea.

Be reminded by said boyfriend that it is just a thing, and that things (while sometimes expensive) are not the most important part of life.
Keep your money. There are better times and places to use it.
