Default Cost of Living

*if* the below is true, you are a rare bird among Americans, who have spent the
last 20 years borrowing and spending and borrowing and spending. I know more
than one person who now owe more than 3x what they paid for their house back in
the 90's or 5x what they paid in the 80's.

either that or you are do a cash business are and trying to hide income from
the IRS.

My four bedroom home with pool - paid for.
My riverfront getaway - paid for.
My oceanfront timeshare in the Florida Keys - paid for.
My 30 ft sloop - older, but paid for.
My pickup truck - paid for.
My coupe - paid for.
My wife's sedan - paid for.

Who cares about you or your crap. Mine is better.

But you're so rich, you can afford to drive an old beat-up car!
Actually, all our stuff is paid for too. I'd a lot rather collect
interest than pay it, and with a little bit of forethought it's not hard
to arrange.

That reminds me of an expression my dear old departed grandfather, a
cattle rancher, used to say...

"he is as rich as a foot up a bull's ass".

It doesn't necessarily sound like a good thing, but apparently it is

Nutsy says it a little Different;

Rich enough to Troll with my Head a foot in a "Pile Of Bull****!"
That's his main Goal In His Empty Life. It makes him happy. That is why
the NG helps him with his asinine, never ending Trolls.

It is our "Act of Kindness to his Simple Minded Life Style"

"His Head a Foot in a Pile Of Bull****" Keeps the ears warm this time
of year, right Nutsy? Troll along and be happy friend.

Thanks, Thom. I appreciated your good humor. It's probably why you've lived
long and well. Good for you!
