Richie Rich
Do you remember the old Richie Rich comics?
Good old Richie had my name, but that was all we had in common. I used to wonder what it would be like to be filthy stinkin' rich.
Henrey Ford was once asked how much money is enough... His answer: "Just a little more." Aint it the truth.
I love that line in the movie "Fiddler on the Roof" where Tevye the Milkman is talking to God, and he says... "Dear Lord, I know it's no shame to be poor, but it's no great honor either!" I think I know how he feels.
Dear friends, let's be clear about wealth. The richer you are, the more stuff you have, and the more stuff you have, the more space you need to put it, and the more space you have, the more work it is to keep it all together. Frankly, I think I'm a bit too lazy to be rich. Too much work. Unless....
Have you noticed the adds at the bottom of my blog? Apparently I get paid to have them there if You, Gentle Reader, click on them. That's right, You can make me RICH if you do your part. Now I don't wish to imply any guilt here. I mean, it's OK if you don't click on these interesting and possibly beneficial to you adds... I'm quite used to not being rich. There is a certain tranquility to it. A comfortable familiarity.---
While I may be unfamiliar with riches, I am, for the sake of science, let's say, willing to give it a try. What the heck, it can't be that bad can it?
So here's my plan. You, Gentle Reader, come and check for updates on my blog every day, and when you do, just click on all the ads each time you visit. In fact, why not click several times? Also, tell all your friends about this semi-cool blog, and tell them about my plan to become fabulously wealthy. I figure that with all those people clicking away, I should be giving Bill Gates a run for his money in about two or three weeks!
Now here is my promise to you. When I'm rich, I'll still talk to you.
Yes, you heard me right! I'll still talk to you, and what's more, you'll be able to tell people that you knew me when I was still a nobody. How cool is that?
To be practical, it would be good if you let me know that you're clicking the ads by leaving a comment. That way, I'll know if you are someone I'm still talking too.
Anyway, do your best, and let's see how it goes.
Cheers,
Rick
Thought provoking question:
If money talks, what does it say?
Money talks, but credit has an echo!
Why do they call it "Take home pay?" - Because you can't afford to take it anywhere else.

See, I'll be more than happy to click away, especially as your benificiary, and the spender of your current funds... but even if I don't seeing as I'll still be taking your money anyways, don't you still have to talk to me by default, seeing as I'm your daughter... a very, smart, special, money-spending daughter at that lol
love ya dad,
Ali
Yes, she's very smart at spending MY money.
She's also quite good at spending her own money. I bet she wishes she had more of it to spend, too.
