Whew! Glad I read that post twice, at first I thought you started with "....extrapolating from my personal life experience, daddy spoiled her...."

very funny, and you clearly don't know how my family operates.....

My guess is you were probably required to have a career and retire before you could assume some of the reigns of the family inheritance.

I always thought of Slick as a "trust fund bunny"....

Amusingly, those type regularly confuse being 'disconnected from it all' with 'being above it all', lol.

Yup...a terminal case of altitude and attitude....
Always in belief...they "hold" the higher moral ground.
What I really like?
Their "foreign investments"...to better America.

no, but I was taught to earn my own way.....the principle of the family estate is that it is my generational responsibility to grow it and maintain it, not drain it like a leech. And, thus far, I've done pretty well, thanks.

Pretty amusing to watch you and Pud speculate about people you'll never understand, or try and fathom the reasons why it is my(and my family's) self-interest to keep a healthy, happy and fair society.

You made my point, thanks. Barf away! lol. No speculation; you reveal enough over time to paint an accurate picture of your character by the way you present yourself, and reveal your social perspective by what you support.

and what would that 'social perspective' be, pray tell? Take all the time you want, Settlesworth is firing up the Rolls so we can take a look at how the other half lives and throw nickels out the windows to the peasantry. He's the best, I tell you, and good help is SOOOOO hard to find. Toodles!

That you believe you are part of a 'class' structure in a classless society, and your political perspective is informed by the progressive movement, which is government driven social evolution. That's pretty accurate.
