How the hell can anyone lose so much money selling donuts, especially ones as yummy at Krispy Kreme's??? It boggles the mind

I don't think its actually physically possible to live a flashy lifestyle in Nebraska. :)

Hef doesn't really want to live like that, he does it for the shareholders and to keep up appearances. :):):)

Maybe you should make him a little checklist of how specifically he should be spending *his* money. Do you also go tell your neighbors and friends how to spend their money and comment on it?

If you're poor, its called crazy, if you're rich its called eccentric.

I don't know where the get the money, but a freaking 24 pack of Kraft cheese is now over $5. That's not a luxury item, its pretty basic. Good thing the government tells us theres no inflation though.

If I'm not mistaken, they raised the price as well.

No, you're absolutely right. Saying things like "What puzzles me why Warren Buffets and value investors only make 20-30% returns a year? Why? Even an ordinary mutual funds like PRLAX, MALTX does better than Warren Buffet" are just pure genius. This quote has it all, misspellings, misused...

Dude, its a 9000 square foot house. Its not exactly a shack.

If you reread my original post, I'm not looking for any certificate or diploma. I'm looking to obtain the knowledge from a master's program without actually getting a degree. I really don't care about a piece of paper, it won't help me. My goal is to approximate the classes without paying.

Most of the reason FOR globalization is that the American consumer spends so much. If we didn't buy so much crap we didn't need, we wouldn't need China's stuff.

Everyone here has probably been to a mortgage closing. There's a mountain of documents that the buyer just signs where he/she is told. They read nothing. If they sat there and read each document, a mortgage closing would take 12 hours. But you're right, people really should read what they sign.

I have a few stocks that went down a little, where do I go for my government refund?

Nothing like BIG GOVERNMENT! Any real Republican should be very very upset with George "Free Markets" Bush over this.
