My grandfather was a very, very wealthy man

[Dad]

From the time I was little he always told me, "Never tell people what you have otherwise you can never ascertain their true motives."

I've never known a truly wealthy person to boast about what they have.

You are more than welcome to post what ever you want - I'm merely pointing out that the more you boast about what you have the more it draws the truth of it into question.

That is all... carry on, kids.

But if people think you are poor they will treat you differently, too.

[opie1988]

Dad-
I couldn't agree with you more. Those that talk about it, don't have it. Those that have it, don't talk about it. I know plenty of dairy farmers driving 15 year old trucks with literally millions in their checking account. They're not too worried what some fool thinks they have.

[jeffksu]

Very well put...and is also the truth....Thanks...

[Joe Dogs]

Very True Dad and usually the biggest mouth in the room is usually the weakest.

[Karayilan9]

To be happy tell everyone your broke.

[Brock Landers]

speak softly and carry a big stick

[will2survive]

Dad--you're awesome but I agree with keyboarding.If people think that you're poor,they treat you like crap!

[MartinBlank]

Truer words have never been posted.

A guy who has money---has no need to tell others how he got that money.

The Oracle from Omaha said it best, "why would I tell others my secrets?"

But if people think you are poor they will treat you differently, too.

Not the same.

If you are driving a '73 Gremlin, rent a 140/month studio----people can pretty much guess you don't have shit.

If you have money---there really isn't any reason to remind people. They will be able to see for themselves.

[jonmic]

i agree, people who talk it up are always lacking something

[nobs]

Where can you get a studio for $140 an month ?

That would be nice if I could get that deal because I only make $6.75 an hour

[DwightShrute]

[Goat Milk]

[36mafia]

you find out who your real friends are when you have nothing
or when they think you have nothing

[stealthyburrito]

so true.

this lesson applies alot to this board

[Full Time Hobo]

Very true.
The first thing that comes to my mind when reading this is "little man syndrome".
Small guy talking big because he knows that he would get smashed if he actually confronted someone.
People with nothing talk big. People with something dont talk at all.

You can actually see it on this board from the way people post.
All these hot shots posting "lock plays" and fudging their numbers because they want to impress people and make it look like they are making it big as a capper. I dont need to name names but im sure some of you have people who come to mind.
Then you got the quiet guys who are making a killing and dont boast about anything. Those are the ones you gotta show respect to.

Enough of my drunk rambling.
PS that asian chick in the pink is nicee. quality posting as usual Dad

[marcoloco]

lots of good saying in here

[pico]

nice to know he was loaded

[paco]

Dad, stop trying to be smart and update the Ass thread.

[Dad]

Paco, done.

[DwightShrute]

you find out who your real friends are when you have nothing or when they think you have nothing

Isn't that the truth

[SHADYLANKY]

ugly women

These guys crack me up. Are they the hottest ever? No but far from ugly.
