Ask me what it's like to be rich

Is the world a better place because of your presence in it?

havng been a Chicago-based attorney for the past 2+ decades myself, the OP sure sounds enough like enough folk I interact with every day that I see no reason to think he is anything other than what he presents himself to be.

I’m very, very sorry for you. My condolences for your work days.

For whatever reason, law school does seem to attract a certain personality type, which is concentrated even more within big city private firms.

Well what are predator drones for, if not for targets like that?

Re: the sniff of arrogane–fiscal liberals like their rich guys to hand their cash over willingly, just like guys that work at the slaughterhouse like the cows to walk in an orderly line to the slaughter. Any suggestion that fiscal liberals don’t have a valid claim to as much of my money as they want smacks of arrogance to them.

Why do people think this sounds insincere? :rolleyes:

There is, however, a sniff of arrogance in some of your posts

You are presuming an awful lot in my remark, dude, and you’ve manufactured a response to address a point that I never made.

I’m starting to think you’re running for office.

Might as well get around to it…

1. What’s the secret to Life in your opinion? And Happiness?
2. If you could snap your fingers and change the world in some omnipotent way for tomorrow, what would you change to better the world?

You know, you’re right. I’m sorry. I hate when people nisrepresent what I say, and that’s what I did to you in that post.

1. I don’t Know.

2. I’ve read enough Sci-fi to appreciate the law of unintended consequences, so I’d play it safe and change whatever my wife has made for dinner to meatloaf (unless it is already meatloaf, in which case I’d change it to a larger and tastier meatloaf).

I like both of your answers. Probably the best #2 I’ve heard yet. Though I’d wish for lamb gyros.
Well played, RR.

Either that, or he’s really Alexander Ovechkin.

I thought you had reached your bullshit limit . . . but you proved me wrong.

[NicePete]

So are you rich enough to afford therapy to deal with your painfully obvious insecurity issues?

What?

Good call. Either she wasn’t going to, or you almost got a smaller, less tasty meatloaf than you would have otherwise.
