    Very true Dave! I work hard for everything I own :)

    It helps that I grew up living in poverty on an Indian reserve to appreciate everything I have

    Didn't grow up on an indian reserve, but we definitely didn't have very much growing up.

    My family was solid middle class. My dad came home from W.W.II and worked 2 jobs so we had what we needed. Basic story of the Boomers.

    Unfortunately, I think he will always have a privileged existence. Tough to take when it gets thrown in hard-working folks faces.

    We had what we needed, but not any luxuries. My dad worked hard, but for some reason we just couldn't get ahead.

    Yeah, it does. Wonder how many of those privileged folks have stomped on the backs of hard working folks to get where they are. Are just plain greedy like the ceo's of companies....

    I don't have a lot, but I bet I've given more to help out in places like New Orleans and Haiti than a lot of "rich folks".

    When I used to bag groceries for extra $$ at the commissary... the enlisted folks usually tipped good, while the officer's were very stingy :eek:
