So, now there you are, calling finstone clueless. Could it be, that you are the clueless one? --that maybe, you have been dis'd behind your back, a few hundred times? . . .maybe?
Well, let's see. I live in France and am regularly invited to every event for miles around. People come to me for advice here. I buy and sell property here. I have to deal with the legal, cultural and social rules in order to profit. And I have been doing this for almost 25 years.

And your experience is that you have family in France?

Maybe you are treated that way because you cannot exist without the attitude that "USA is #1" dripping form your actions at every turn. Clueless indeed.
