Bottom Line Jim, you are not a progressive at all - You sir are a looter. Why do you have so much stuff. You are stealing from the less fortunate. Give it up. John Wayne Smith In a message dated 6/12/2010 8:08:47 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, bottomlinejim2...@gmail.com writes:
Nope, I'm a winner and proud of it. got out of H.S. in '78, dropped out of college in '79, worked sheet metal and factories for 3 years, put $25/week into mutual fund (increased it later as my income went up), went back to college and graduated in '88 with honors, worked hard, saved money, used compounding interest, never went into debt. I semi-retired at 45, am debt free, have a lot of assets, self made business, life is good. I'm free. We never used our home as a ATM with seconds and thirds, we never got a loan for our business, we invested in real estate over the years. We are free of the tyranny of debt. I do a lot of work with alcoholics in the half way houses. I can't tell you how many of them dropped out of H.S. when housing was booming and they learned how to swing a hammer. Now they are sitting around and blaming the government because they dropped out and their only skill is swinging a hammer.
