My New Motto...

I have worked my arse off and I am now at a point in my life where I am comfortable. I have no credit card debt, a decent savings for the kids college fund, semi-productive investments. My job is, for the most part pretty secure and I have a few annuity concepts that will start paying out in the next year or so and should do so for the forseeable future regardless off market flux.

I really do not like the direction things are heading. I have a bad feeling about the state of the union. I have now adopted a new motto, a creedo if you will:

Share My Work Ethic Not My Wealth

It prolly will mean nothing. Maybe if I keep it before me always if will rub off onto others?

Very inspirational, just one minor mistake. By admitting "wealth" you have placed yourself on the target list to be one of the great donors for his social experiment.

All that money you have better be in jars or under the mattress. 140 banks have failed so far this year. Nothing is safe! And as someone mentioned,don't talk about how good your financial life is to nobody. It's like flashing a wad of money on the street in the low rent district of town, somebody could thump you over the head and take it.

You don't get it, do you? The democrats' policy is in direct conflict with yours.
They believe in "reward failure, punish success".

They will punish you by taking nearly everything you have and reward failure by giving it to people who can't or won't earn it for themselves. You are soooo screwed.
