You beat up nobody, you ignorant self-delusional failure. You win only in
your own under-developed mind. Everyone else sees you for the joke you
really are.

Any idiot can own twice the crap you do.


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:)
Feel free to use it when describing yourself, if you wish. My gift to
you, from the Lonestar State, home of Valiant Yachts:)

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"

The cost means nothing at all.

We can judge the love that you feel for your boat by the duration of your
ownership.

Alien, as I said from the start, is a pile of crap.

You have confirmed my view by replacing her after only a single season.

I'm in the same situation, the only debt I have is a small mortgage on the
