wow,,,,keep up with the times


ridiculous is slang for something that is unbelievable

no definition was changed by me


it would be UNBELIEVABLE to earn that type of money since only about one percent of americans can or do


and I would be elated (quite happy) to be one of those people,,,


I don't imagine I would be on a street corner, I am blessed with a network of people that wouldn't allow that to happen

If I was unfortunate enough to lose that network, I would definitely find ways that didn't require me to merely be out on the corner,

Im not without other resources,,,,


Unbelievable, ridiculous, a paltry little million. In order to earn a million dollars, there are tens or hundreds of millions or maybe a billion dollars involved.

Again, you have absolutely no concept of that which you speak.



lol at earning a million taking a billion


whatever dude,,,none of that was in the question I responded to






Nothing is ever in anything you respond to, now do you get the jet? Doubt it.

And you definitely have no concept of money. You have definitely never dealt with large sums, know what it's like to go to a meeting and walk away with documents worth millions, all in a days work. Or to go to a meeting and sign documents spending millions, all in a days work. And personally, that's a whole other story, but one I would project you shall never know.



I get that statements with 'nothing, no one, all or every', are rarely easy to substantiate or prove true,,,


I get that I still didn't state ANY of the things attributed to me in the previous post



and this is relevant to how I would feel making 650000 per year,, how?

If greed were defined as "desire for excess", than it is what drives our economy, produces food, builds homes, cars etc. Greed matched with productivity can be beneficial everyone.

The desire to obtain these things without providing efforts to contribute is a problem. These people can be found in all income brackets.

It can be the able-bodied person wanting an increase in welfare benefits while refusing to find a job. Or it can be the person making a $1M+ annually who continually gets raises each year, while only works 3 months, and cuts employees' wages/benefits to maintain his lifestyle.

I personally know people from both categories.

Luckily here in the U.S. one can obtain necessities regardless of income. You just have to know where to look.
