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.

Alms for the almost poor....alms for the almost poor.....

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.
