With the plethoria of " Who wants to be a bajillionaire" shows on tv now, this subject has come up between Mr. Ujest and myself more than a few times.
I think it’s GREED, where they fan out a big wad of money before you to put the pressure on you before your next big answer.
My husband, normally an unflappable kind of guy when the pressure is on, just goes nuts when they do this. " Can you imagine the pressure…all that money…blah blah blah." I’m pretty sure he is all agog because he is the breadwinner of the family and naturally, feels alot of pressure.
This money waving doesn’t phase me at all. As much as X amount would reconcile alot of bills and settle some lingering worries in the future, I would rather be right.
I’ve been poor, so to speak, my entire life. All because of my investment choices and carefree spending. In reality, I’ve probably had well over $100,000, or more, just not all at once. Just a paycheck at a time. Being right is something that really cannot be taken away from you and, the bonus part, cannot be taxed.
What is your choice?
I’ll go with rich, and then publish my own textbooks that indeed prove the Swedish bombed Pearl Harbor, chickens control the International Monetary Fund, and when the lights are turned off my skin color changes to gray but always turns pink right when I turn the lights back on.
