They wouldn't even let me sign up Purl. I registered, got their e-mail and when I clicked on their link I got a message that basically said "you're a pile of chit and we don't want you here". Ah gee, I was looking forward to it too.

We are at this formal very stuffy arrogant snobbish rich folks black tie affair. My husband is wearing his Italian tuxedo, I am naked as always.
A silly extravagant money wasteful dinner party for two rich kids about to marry.
Kinda annoyed me. Everyone is so stuffy, so very boring, so arrogant. Too many diamond necklaces over plunging necklines exposing rich shriveled up old women tits which think they still have it. Lecherous old men wearing Rolex watches which display a time of a buck short and a day late.
Ever eat some kinda green tomato jello like stuff served with artichokes and butter? The green tomato stuff literally caused me to gag. I politely dropped my linen napkin, leaned down then spat it on the floor between my feet. God, that stuff is horrible. I would rather suck snot out of an elephant's trunk.
Artichokes, how annoying, how maddening. You have to drag the stupid stuff between your teeth to get any of the vegetable meat. I did not. I sat their scraping it off with my knife into a small pile of yellow gunk, then scooped it up with a coffee spoon. People gave me odd looks.
Everyone is giving toasts to the spoiled rotten rich kids, who will marry, have two kids, then divorce in ten years. Oh, how sophisticated. Each person tinkles a wine glass with a spoon to garner attention, "Here's to Mr. and Mrs. Snobass and their wonderful future!"
F-that. I tinkle my wine glass with a spoon, stand, make the usual motions of salute with my wine glass and say, loudly, "Here's to swimmin' with bow legged wimmin!"
A couple of people choked and spewed wine.
We never received another invitation to one of their eloquent dinner parties. Just as well. That tomato crap tastes like sh!t.

Glassyboy, oh Glassyboy, you are special. You are the only. Seems appropriate with our hanging out for three years.
Keep those lips zipped; this you have to earn.
1958 Corvette, worth about $150,000 to $200,000.
We have friend who is a custom car nut. The man has twenty or thirty hot rod show cars in a huge warehouse. He built each one.
We are at a car show in Las Vegas. Of course his 1955 Chevy wins some top prices. This young oil rich wanna-be shiek from Sauda Arabia offers him $500,000 for his Chevy. Our friend declines. Later I slap the back of his head then scold him for not making some good bucks. He rubs his head and says, "I cannot sell my Chevy! She is my baby girl. Hell, I lost my virginity in a 1955 Chevy."

Typical wholesale auto auction. These are wholesale dealers looking to buy used cars to sell on their "previously owned" car lots.
This is in Las Vegas. Cars roll across the auction block at a rate of two per minute, maybe one per minute, depending on how intense is bidding. Just like a cattle auction but replace the legs with tires. All car dealers are crooks.
You can see seven lanes of cars. Over a course of four to six hours, anywhere from four-thousand to six-thousand cars will be auctioned, on a busy day. Average about two-thousand cars for a typical slow day. Auctions are held only one day a week.
To be a wholesale dealer, like my husband and I, you have to be insured, bonded and state licensed. The state performs a background check and all that. You have to carry a state issued license which looks just like a driver's license. For each auction, you have to register in advance, they do a background check and a financial check.
Surprising so many of those crooks can obtain a state license to deal.

The worst mistake young people, all people make, is buying a brand new car. That is about as stupid as can be. The moment you apply your wet ink signature, your new car loses ten percent of the price you paid. Zero miles, not even driven yet, but a loss of ten percent in value.
This is a Honda sports car I sold in Vegas. Made a little over four grand off the car. Only work needed is detailing; wash, wax, clean the interior.
Bought this one here in California from a person we know. He leveraged himself into high debt by abusing credit. He direly needed money. I helped him out by buying his car at five grand below Kelly Blue Book _wholesale_ price. Tough luck. That is the way it goes when you run yourself down into deep debt; the vultures move in.
Exotic cars, sports car and pickup trucks fetch a much higher price in Las Vegas. Lots and lots of wild free cash flying around in Vegas.
This about eight in the morning before auction. Air temperature was already one-hundred degrees.
So, who wants to be a millionaire? This only requires a lot of hard work. We do not limit ourselves to stocks. We are also hustling cars and real estate.
We are there, dead of Winter, looking to both sell and buy. We sell some cars there, then look for cars to drag back to California.
Out on the lot, there are patches of ice on the asphalt, slippery black ice. This fat man car dealer slips and cracks his head on the ice covered asphalt. Emergency people quickly show up, are treating him and all that. Nothing wrong with him other than too fat to get up, maybe a bit dazed, a little blood, lots of masculine cry babying. At worst, he suffers a headache and a knot on his head.
I want to look at a car in front of which he is lying on the ground complaining to his wife and the emergency people, "Am I going to die? Oh God, am I going to die?" Fat fool, I have been worse injured being kicked by a mule. You just get up, suck some air, and continue your work, lest Grandpa catches you wallowing on the ground in severe pain, then gives you a butt switching for allowing the mule to kick you.
I am trying to get to this car which is coming up for auction in five or ten minutes. Engine is already started and running in preparation for a driver to drive it across the block.
Never buy a car without looking and kicking tires!
My husband is off a few cars down, out of ear range, so I ask, "Would you boys mind dragging that man over out of my way? I want to look at this car." I figure his fat ass is laying there on slippery ice, should not be much of a chore.
The man's wife had the nerve to call me a, "heartless b!tch." Well shoot, lady, this is business not diaper changing time.
You boys would not survive me in the "real world."

wow egg inspector is a mod with 100% reputation. well that won't make him any money in the market!
being a vulture is a good position to be in, especially if you have the cash!! wealthy people always hustle, poor people sit around and complain how tough they have it. objects in motion tend to stay in motion....

"poor people sit around and complain how tough they have it."
Boy Howdy. As you know we were both born to poverty on a rural Oklahoma farm. We literally had no money for our first twenty years of life.
Shoot, my husband would ride a bicycle to work, when he could, to save money. I took a bus to work.
Both of us were and are motivated to secure the best life possible for our small family. We worked our butts off to get where we are today and we are still working our butts off, except my butt keeps becoming bigger and bigger and bigger....
People who wallow in their own misery, people who spend their time cry babying about how unfair is life, will spend their lives doing just that.
Know what you get when you work your fingers to the bone? Bony fingers.
My attitude is if my husband and I can pick ourselves up by the bootstraps, work hard and become successful, others can do the same.
A qualifier is there are poor people in third world countries who have no chance. This is very tragic and sad. However, here in America, all are afforded a chance to be successful. This only requires self-sacrifice and hard work.

people seem to think it is so easy to run your business, or even restore a car for that matter. they seem to think you just sit there and people throw money at you. not true ! the parts just paint themselves and fly on ! then they get mad when you don't give them what you worked so hard for. people want to have what we have, but they don't want to do the work necessary to get there or to stay there !

1975 Mako Shark. Five-hundred horsepower, five speed manual close ratio, NASCAR like suspension. Zero to sixty in four seconds, two-hundred miles per hour top end.
I have only taken my 'Vette to one-hundred-eighty.
Only costs five dollars to start it up and let idle for thirty seconds. Passes everything on the road, except a gas station.
On restoring, if to be a show car, this takes years. Our last project car for a family member, took three years to complete. A 1967 Camaro convertable. This one is a show stopper and wins trophies at every car show.
Restoring cars just to a "nice" condition takes a lot of work, lots and lots.
On wholesale cars, I spend at least one full day, two full days per week, looking at hundreds of cars for a potential buy and turn around. Lot work in this, as well, such as minor body work, paint job, new upholstery, whatever "minor" level work is needed to profit.
I do not have long fingernails and my hands are as calloused as any hard working man.
