Pop got lucky once and caught a lot of fish, in the middle of the great depression when thay had 13 family members and $100 a month in income. People were going hungry big time in 1932.
When he tried to give some of his surplus away, the potential recipients wanted to know if the fish had been cleaned!
We have enough debt now to cover the total net worth of over 17,000,000 millionaires (a fictitional millionaire worth exactly 1 million US dollars).
What's another 100,000 millionaires (fictitional)? I guess it's like what does it matter if the financial tsunami is a mile high or a mile and an additional 100 yards high. In either case it will be catastrophic.
It's gotten so bad the news yaps can't even get the number right, millions, billions, trillions. the only problem is one is a million times the other.
My uncle caught a 600 pound grouper off of Key West, carreid it to the fish market in Key West. They told him they could not use it. he sat outside the market, hacking chunks of grouper off the carcass and gave it to every potential customer before they got to the market. After about 30 minutes, they decided they could use the rest after all.
