Discover Card is KILLING ME!!!

I hope no one other than Einzige has missed the point of this thread - jmfcst wanted to brag.  And now he has, and we have listened.

Good for you, jmfcst, for the high income.  Kudos, enjoy it.. or at any rate what ever passes for 'enjoy' in your case.  You are very right to value your social position and its material reward, and to remind others of their inferior position.  This is good old fashioned simian behavior, and nothing the rest of us have any basis to question. 

I present my submission to you in (symbolic) kind:

Dude if you're spending more than ten grand a month, your financial situation isn't totally dependent on driving an old car or brown bagging it - you quite simply are a high income person.   No amount of frugality can make the poor escape poverty.

Btw, I apologize if showing my baboon bum was offensive.  That post was a bit tongue in cheek (haha, get it, cheek), but I do sense you were bragging a bit.  And why not?  I was just teasing back - man's gotta expect that, no?

Guy's don't be so stingy if you're getting cut out of the card game.. just let a few balances carry over for a few months now and again.  Its well worth it to give back part of your wind fall for the convenience etc.

Looking at that pie graph from Discover, I believe jmfcst is married to Imelda Marcos.

Let's not blame the little woman - perhaps jmfcst is the Imelda Marcos of the pair.  Although, in fairness, if the Better Half has to put up with this tightly wound religious fanatic day in day out, she bloody well deserves a few thousands worth of shoes and frocks.  And jewels, lots of exurban-style jewlry..
