I won't say exactly how much I make, but I will say this: when I was in high school and college, had I known I would make as much as I do now, I would have almost certainly believed that I'd be driving sports cars and living the high life in a big house...with little to no worries. The reality is that life is freaking expensive. My wife doesn't work (takes care of our little one) so that is part of it, but I wouldn't have thought that would matter. I know part of our problem is the mismanagement of money, unfortunately. I always thought as a kid that if I ever reached the point I am at now, I'd be considered "rich". But as Jules said in Pulp Fiction, "That **** ain't the truth."
All you folks who claim to make over $50,000/year and are still not contributing members - Tsk, Tsk. We now know who you are.
historically and globally speaking, if you're able to put away ANYTHING you're killing it. you're wealthy. we've lost all perspective. we spend more shopping the day after Thanksgiving than it would take to drill wells to provide clean water to the entire world. and then we b**** about not having enough or as much as the next guy.
Forget emu farm. He's going to make those b----es fly! <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Og5saE-D5QE&hl=en&fs=1&start=47"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Og5saE-D5QE&hl=en&fs=1&start=47" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> Ya gotta admit, that's a sound business model: 1. Emus & tethered hang gliders. Bringing flight to the flightless! 2. ??? 3. Lottery-sized profit!
I'm not telling. I don't want to have a bunch of Clutchfans come mooching off of me or getting me to invest in their latest get rich scheme selling Craig Ehlo and Brent Price commemorative plates.
Also I'm making a special offer to all Clutchfans to get in on the ground floor of my new venture guarenteed to make you wealthy while barely lifting a finger. Vassilis Spanoulis Gyros Seasoning! Get the flavor of V-Span! With only a small investment of a few thousand dollars you too can be living the high life in a few years on Myknos reaping in the profits off of this can't miss product! Anytakers? DD?
