what do you do for a living?

[Beej]

Does someone read Mr. Kyosaki(sp)?

Actually I haven't. I just looked him up though and his stuff is the same info provided by successful wealth accumulators. Following that advice can make a person wealthy in one generation. Provided one does not get too terribly sucked into being a consumption junkie...

Take my two uncles. One's a spender, the other a hoarder. Spender looks rich, fine cars, nice home, high paying job, but no real wealth to speak of.
Other uncle is a tradesman and lives quite frugally, drives an old Ford pickup, lives in a house he built 30 years ago by hand, and is worth a couple of million right now. To look at them both you'd assume the spender is richer, but it just ain't the case.

I read it somewhere that the spender is "Big Hat, no Cattle", but the hoarder has a "Small Hat, lots of Cattle"...

Beware Affluenza.

Can't believe this isn't on this post anywhere
Hi. I'm, uh, I'm a pet psychiatrist. I sell couch insurance. Mm-hmm, and I - and I test-market positive thinking. I lead a weekend men's group, we specialize in ritual killings. Yeah, you look great! God, yeah! Hi, how are you? Hi, how are you? Hi, I'm Martin Blank, you remember me? I'm not married, I don't have any kids, and I'd blow your head off if someone paid me enough

I work at Kentucky Fried Chicken. I sell biscuits and gravy all over the Southlands

I'm a professional killer.
Do you have to do postgraduate work for that?

I was sitting there alone on prom night, in a goddamn rented tuxedo, and my whole life flashed before my eyes. And I realized finally, and for the first time, that I wanted to kill somebody.

I'm hurt... I'm pissed... gotta find a new job!
