Maybe if they save that 67.17 they can purchase a shredder in a few months.

I think that is more common than people would think. A couple leased BMW's in the garage?

I think it called keeping up with the Jones. Living in a house of cards right on the edge. One of them gets sick or loses their job and it all falls apart.

I can only imagine what conversations they have about their white trash neighbor with all his trucks and trailers parked in the back yard.

That little piece of 411 is a healthy dose of perspective...F the Joneses!

If I was making payment on all dhem trucks and trailers I would not be able to afford em. Good thing I keep the boats elsewhere.

My back yard has my enclosed utility trailer for the motor bikes, a dump bed golf cart, a tin fishing boat, a small flat bed trailer and a jet ski that is sitting in gravel oh and now an FJ40

It's not how much money you make, its how much you spend. Some millionaire's live in a single wide, some "high rollers" live day to day in saguaro forest. I drive a $300 truck, wear 6 year old boots, and live somewhere in between.

I run across/ know some people i consider "rich" but it has nothing to do with money - rich in their lives, outlook, and relationships - they know what's important to them

Somewhere I read that 80% of the millionaire+ folk drive 4 year old Ford Explorers and wear blue jeans. The one's I know fit that description. Or as one girl back in the disco days once said, "I like guys in suits, means they have lots of money!" To which I replied, "No, it just mens they spend a lot of money on suits." Replace suit with BMW, whatever.

You really can not tell when you look at person, if their rich or not rich. Some people like nicer things, and some people like rust ones.
In the USA you have rich and not rich (rarely do you see real poor) most people have Cars, tv's and Cellphones. Their not living in mud hut
waiting for their next meal to crawl by. I was told a millionaire is someone who works or doesn't work and can keep the lifestyle he enjoys!
