Rich Pawning Diamonds, Artwork; Cutting 'Jet' Time - Net Worth Shrinking

Quote from Joab:

There's wealth and theres greed,

Two totally different things.

As I've recently posted in another thread.

It's time to take responsibility for what we have done to ourselves and the world.

:cool:

no. You mean employing the masses, raising the standard of living worldwide, curing disease---plus countless other things.

It is all relative.

I don't want to hear anymore sour grapes from the losers.

Quote from gnome:



Those traders who cry poor, support overtaxing of the rich and socialists... are posers and shouldn't waste their time in ANY capitalistic endeavor, let alone trading.

I disagree - long ago I understood that it takes $$$ to change the world.

My dream was never to make money for myself but only to wield POWER.

I always wanted to be "that rich old philanthropist that made a difference somehow".

What good does a garage full of useless stuff do you ?

Do it for the challenge NOT the money or the belief that the money will bring you happiness, otherwise you will be sadly mistaken and die miserable surrounded by stuff.

Your out of your league little boy.

I suggest you go back to your dorm room and study for your next exam.

Whether you want to "change the world" or not, shouldn't it be YOUR choice of what to do with the money YOU earned? .. don't you resent the fact that your success is taxed away to be given to non-doers and to finance Gummint largess??

YES your absolutely right but then again that's why we have tax havens ;-)

I hate the fact that the government spends my tax money on their agenda's rather then things that I feel would be better.

I would love to see more money spent on education and helping the needy then War, especially wars like Iraq and Vietnam that are nothing but huge money vacuums and accomplish nothing but lining the pockets of Oil Companies and the very very select few.

"Tax havens" are mostly dodgy loopholes. If we had a reasonable and fair tax policy... and politicians who didn't line their own pockets and buy political influence with the public purse, tax havens would not exist.

Tax them bastards!

I am closing 3 businesses! Taking the cash overseas with me to find better opportunities there.

There will be approx 50 employees that will be jobless.. and I will not be creating any more jobs (..lets be clear, it's me and the entrepreneurial types that build businesses +create jobs.. the government will tax YOU and give someone non-producing, regulatory type work).

So THIS is what your tax increases will bring..

Lower taxes.. and I will return! :cool: :D
