100 million can BUY you a LOT of respect.

I fully understand the respect and doing the right thing. I do just that 100% of the time. But there is no 100 million lure in for me.

Stop and think how much 100 million really is. We hear about government spending way more than that and it does not sound like a lot. Now go look at your current net worth. Divide 100 million buy your real current net worth.

It is all just like the old joke about asking some pretty lady if she will have sex with you for a million bucks. Most would say yes, but if it just 50 bucks the answer is "what do think I am?" The answer is I know what she is, we are just negotiating a price.
