Invest in yourself. That's the best advice I ever received from an economist. If you can't figure out a single way to invest in yourself then you get what you deserve.

 

I don't think so..............Barstool economics......pretty much explains a lot........it's long but worth reading..........

Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:

The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7.
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.

So, that's what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve.
"Since you are all such good customers", he said, "I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20". Drinks for the ten now cost just $80.
The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes so the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his "fair share?"
They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer. So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay.

And so:
The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings).
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33%savings).
The seventh now pay $5 instead of $7 (28%savings).
The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).

Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings.
"I only got a dollar out of the $20," declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man, "but he got $10!"
"Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man. "I only saved a dollar, too. It's unfair that he got ten times more than I!"
"That's true!!" shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!"
"Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison. "We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!"
The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.
The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!

And that, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.
Eat the rich.........and the poor will die!

 

She is 8 hours ahead of my time so thru the week i won't see her, when she would be on i'm in bed or at work

 

I suppose I could get myself some more certifications, or go back to school and master in physics, but what's the point in that? Already, wherever I apply, I'm getting "overqualified" or "your salary requirments are too high" or "why do you want to work here?" If I get more educated than I am now it'll continue to get more ridiculous trying to get a job.

 

Too much!!!

 

Chriqui tonite? And Cobie? wow two of my favorites..

 

No offense CylnZ, but that's a completely asinine statement. The "rich" pay the bulk of the taxes in this country. They're the ones who create business, and jobs. When is the last time you saw a welfare recipient open up a shop, and hire new employees?

 

Keep asking questions like that: I can already think of a couple things you might do if you have money to invest in yourself.

Everyone has to decide: Is a LOT of money my priority? Is happiness with a little money a priority? Do I want to help make someone else a millionaire (your employer or your govt)? Can I go it on my own and work for myself? Do I want those hassles? Do I want to help homeless kids and fuck the money? What do I really want -- for myself?

 

You know about me and Emmanuelle. I think Cobie needs a new agent -- she's one of the mot beautiful women out there and is underexposed.

 

Nice sig...........and yes......the rich pay the majority of all of the wonderful govt. programs to pay out to the poor.......CYlnZ you are not quite there........but paying probably 30 percent of your income to help out the "greater good" Imagine working not 4 months of the year going all to the government........but 6.........all going to uncle sam........

 

Cobie is very HOT!!! need more Cobie!

 

2k............what's your confidence level in the tigers about now?

 

I can invision damn near 100%, and 12 months if things continue the way they are. We have yet to discuss the hyper inflation that is knocking on the door.

kaos.......based on your post, and the tagline under your sig, methinks you, and I are going to get along quite well.

 

I'm off,till next time.

 

Based on lots you posted tonite.......and that sig........I agree...

 

Please, if we eat the rich, the system will simply get the restart that would have naturally happened in the 1990's right on schedule for the 60 year bust, the wealth would have been redistributed by the turnover in new fortunes, the world would develop new Rockefellers and Gates within a generation and life would go on. The artificial means the current crop of mega-rich have used to circumvent the natural reorganization of the worlds cultural and economic systems is doomed to failure in the end, and I personally have my fork and bottle of A1 sauce ready for when dinner is finally served.

 

Sleep tight Ice. I'll get those snaps to ya in the morning if you're still up for it bro.
