I work with someone who tells me that their "live-in" is an excellent investor. Mind you, these people have received a few million dollars (outside of investing) in recent years - I think that may have gone a long way toward this "excellent" investing track record.
I'm always rather skeptical of people who brag of their own success or the success of those near and dear. However, as I contemplated my own investment skills, I came to a conclusion. I'm an excellent borrower!
I may not invest much but I sure can bring it in! Well, there is that minor catch of having to give it back some day but for now I'm a regular debt magnet. Mortgage? Got it. Line of credit? All over it. Car loans? You know it! And credit cards? I think there is a forest in Washington designated for the exclusive use of sending me pre-approved credit card offers.
Oh yeah, don't bother telling me about your financial prowess - I'm right there with Warren Buffet. Well, maybe across from him - with a loan document placed in front of me.

I happen to be in front of a buffet right now, and pondering similar thoughts. Why are all you can eat buffets becoming so popular? I mean doe it necessarily warren to have to go for repeated visits to the people troughs for the extra bite of fried chicken and mashed potatoes?
What is it that is so attractive for people that they gorge on foods that they normally don't even eat? Is it the flat price, or the fact that you can eat like your entering the guiness book? It just seems like such a waste for your waist?
Jimmy Buffet invested in a chain of restaurants that borrows a line from one his songs, Cheeseburger in Paradise. It has an appropriately tropical atmosphere and the burgers aren't bad but I'm surprised it's not a buffet!
By the way, in Hawaii (as close to paradise as I've been), there is a restaurant called "Cheeseburger" that truly is a Cheeseburger in Paradise. However, I think Mr. Buffet wouldn't let them use the song title as a restaurant name.
Some things just don't make sense.
I think they don't serve margaritas at his restaurant either. Probably chips, not fries. Ok, Ok, so I'm just trying to get your goat.
Like your last comment. That made no sense to me at all. Ah, who knows, maybe it's my own damn fault.
Sounds like your wasting away again.
No, just admiring my brand new tattoo.
Sounds to me like you blew out your flop flop
Hey, don't pop your top!
They're beginning to boil!
Hey, don't over-heat the booze in the blender!
But it's a real beauty!
