Ding! Ding!! But I'm going to wager that the average millennial isn't going to see it that way. Why is Warren trying to pander to the millennial crowd? I thought Bernie had that strategy trademarked? :ne_nau:Quote:

You could say the same about free healthcare. If they do allow private hospitals to exist, they will be much better than the free ones. At least that's the way it works everywhere else in the world.Quote:

College? I never even went to high school...was throw onto the street at 15. My grandfather was a house painter and took mercy on me...hired me every now and then to help out. That's how I got started in the trade.Quote:

I've always made good money primarily because I'm a high energy dude...but another thing I've had on my side is that I never married or had any kids. Marriage is fine if your gal can bring something to the table, but one person alone bringing home the bacon...you can pull in 100K a year and still not have much left, and if you add kids to the mix...yikers!
I attribute my lifestyle to the fact that I never had to spend any of the money I made on any other human being but myself. However... discipline, savings and smart investments can get you there, you just have to buckle down and "pay your dues"...I call that "no more pizza nights".
At some point, you have to go crazy with saving...go to work, come home, eat your meals at home, clip coupons, don't buy anything you don't absolutely need, no movies, no road trips, no fancy duds...grind it out, baby. It may take a year or two, but you'll end up with a giant wad of cash...then it's easy to "never go back". I did that between the ages of 28-30.
One of my favorite sayings is "Don't spent $2000 until you have $10,000 in the bank".
Pete Buttigieg is my current prediction to win the Democratic Presidential nomination.... I've said all along the Democrats will find an unknown like Obama in 2008 to run for President.
Rivals are scrambling to dig up dirt on Pete Buttigieg
Buttigieg was on nobody's radar as a serious presidential contender until a few weeks ago. Now his competitors are scrambling to find vulnerabilities.

This country 'aint going to elect a queer.
I agree totally with that.... but the Democrats would have no issues with it.Quote:

Indeed...I have a couple very liberal friends that are now fully on board the Trump Train. They run small businesses...and they're not stupid. But they sure as hell didn't vote for him the first time around.
Now, when I say liberal I mean it. These dudes are the kind to sit in the lotus position with incense burning as they meditate...while dressed in what I call the "hippie costume".
In the middle of next month, I'll be in Moab with about 70 people for a week long mnt. biking extravaganza...about 30 of them are good friends of mine I've know for years, yet others I'm acquainted with and some are new to the scene...friends of friends. We get together every year...we camp out. Big fires every night.
Anyway, when Obama was Prez there was a lot of talk about politics, and when Trump got in there was as well. However, last year NO ONE talked about it at all...I tend not to bring it up myself, because all my friends know that I'm not a liberal pissed off lightweight and the noobies can figure out which side of the fence I'm on just by watching me move around. The conservative ones tend to have the nicer bikes, too.
It'll be interesting to see if that kind of talk shows up this year...although I doubt it because they haven't got anything to crow about.
Get you a 'Make America Great Again' hat and wear it around. I wear mine all the time and it's actually a lot of fun.
True story... I've had a couple snowflakes melt because of the hat. And it's ALWAYS a fat ugly millennial chick.
But the thumbs up and nice hat comments out number the melts 50 to 1.

NO WAY! I'll have it in my truck...but I won't put it on. I'm actually pretty popular at these events and I want to keep it that way...the last thing I want to do is trigger someone and have to deal with all that nonsense. I'm there to have a good time.Quote:

You've gotta have a GoPro going when you wear it. It should be a rule.Quote:

I've said it before and I'll say it again, those who scream "tolerance" the loudest are pretty much always the least tolerant in my experience. They are only tolerant if you believe exactly as they do.
