The last post is the WINNER!

I have a corporate defined benefit pension which I expect to get far more than I paid in.

I don't borrow money. Outside of buying our house, I never borrowed money.. I can thank my depression era father for that model. If I ran a business, that might be different but my wife and I both have the "if you don't have money, don't buy it" philosophy. I like the feeling of freedom we have for not owing money. It's a winning thing to do.

Alas, I've paid off my home.
I'm somehow less of a man now.

This was about romantic love, but it applies to financial affairs as well

Suddenly
I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly

Do what I do when that happens...go buy another one...but keep the one you paid off...that way your even MORE of a man.

Congratulations. Unless you fixed it as in "I fixed 'its wagon'"

Does running over it with a station wagon count

and you call yourself MAN!!!!! I think less of you now than I did before...... but since I did not think very highly of you in the first place...its really not all that much different

 

[Revoltingest]

and you call yourself MAN!!!!!

No, I don't.

I think less of you now than I did before...

Then you had inadequate judgment before.

No, I don't.

Then you had inadequate judgment before.

However, the deflation he experienced has probably brought his judgment in line with reality...

Well.... in your case.....I actually have no argument against that.......but I still win...and it would have been a hollow win to beat the likes of you...the lowliest of the low....I can't tell you how much I appreciate beenherebeforeagain's post so I have some sense of satisfaction at beating a worthy opponent

 

[Revoltingest]

Your loss is worthy too.

 

[beenherebeforeagain]

As is mine win

 

[Wu Wei]

winning again....against a worthy opponent

 

[Revoltingest]

Winning with post #119,000.

 

[Wu Wei]

[Revoltingest]

Empty win!

 

[beenherebeforeagain]

Full win!

 

[Buddha Dharma]

Mediocre win

 

[beenherebeforeagain]

winning ugly

Goodnight win
