Holy cow! I'm the 107,566th richest person in the world, right behind Banksey. Always a pound short or a day late. I am humbled.

But it's all relative... this doesn't take into consideration buying power, housing prices, taxation rates. With L.A. prices, we practically need food stamps! _________________ the Amy Snively family of brands for all your branded thing needs.

Read the rest of the site as the point is that we who read this are rich in many ways. |

Indeed, Philip.
All the people in the world, and the overwhelming majority aren't just poor, they're desperately poor.
This is a good reminder that I need to donate a bit more this year and give some more direct local help in other ways too.
The Caesars did not have laptops, cars, central heat and air, and access to boutique grocers. They didn't even have Caesar Salads. Nor did my great grandparents. I'm doin' alright. _________________ Skype: globalvoiceover

44,274,467th "richest".
Still pretty doggone happy.
The roof leaks, but there are cookies in the cupboard and jelly babies in a box in my office and a drum kit in the basement. I am the wealthiest woman on earth. _________________ DBCooperVO.com

At 107565th place here, too.
This past year we found many new ways to give back because we haven't forgotten what it was like to scrape and scrub to get by... and even when we were that "poor" we were still better off than so many others. _________________ Charter Member: Threadjackers Local 420 |

A person with $100 in their pocket... living in Los Angeles, California... is insignificant.
A person with $100 in their pocket... living in Lost Springs, Wyoming... is the richest man in town.
