SU is having a difficult time coming to grips that a surfer is able to get under his skin so easily.

I am most certainly not rich. I live by this motto:

WHta's cheap is good, what's free is best, take those two and forget the rest.

I would tend to believe you about SU, though, given his penchant for high profile pro bono work (almost always a lawyer's precursor into politics and elected office).

I am also positive that Creekster is loaded because I remember in a previous thread that he was bragging about owning 3 bikes.
He sends his children to expensive colleges and goes to New Zealand and Kauai for vacations. He lives in the Creek, and travels the world. He owes no debt and works for world famous corporations.

SU is wealthy beyond imagination. You must pay just to enter into his walled off residence.

PAC being part of Silicon Valley and many Taiwanese fortunes would cast a shadow upon everybody but Seattle. PAC is even considered one of the top corporate lawyers of California, and has toured Europe on exclusive bases with top notch talent. PAC rubs shoulders with the rich and aristocracy of the Church, knowing him is almost like knowing a famous GA. Kip has real money, he picked the right parents and inherited.

A prof once gave the true guides to wealth, you marry it, in which you pay for it, you pick the right parents, or you go public. He was my Securities professor.

Again, I beg for free food and catch a free ride whenever I can. There is no shame in poverty but gratis is a word which we all appreciate.

I'm in a pretty good position myself. I dropped FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS last Saturday at Lowe's buying pavers (red perfect edge), mulch, and other landscaping accessories. Cold Hard Cash.

Yeah, I didn't want to brag but it's good for you guys to know your place.

I will not be participating in the poll. I know someone has the ability to see what I put down as income. I can't be sure that the myth I have built up about how rich I am wouldn't be exposed for the world to see.

I thought about lying, but I prefer whores and harlots to liars so I couldn't bring myself to do so.

Default What this poll shows is that CG is solidly

in the middle class. Perhaps upper middle class. But the vast majority fall in the 60-149K range. Regardless of what some may think, that is not "rich".

Cash? That is so 20th century. Embrace the future.
