  2. I have a friend here in Miami, hes in his late 50s, he started out of college(U of Miami) and opened 3 medical offices over 30yrs ago. Just last yr he sold his healthcare company based here in Miami for close to $225 million. Hes a pretty down to earth person, doesnt go to wild parties, or have an entourage of friends follow him everywhere he goes. He has a mercedes 600, 2 range rovers, a bmw convt, Ford GT, and a Mini. he likes his cars, what grown man doesn't. He lives in a (modest by his standards) $1.3 million house her eon the mainland, a penthouse on key Biscayne, another near key largo. He just recently bought a Hawker 900XP jet($15 million) and an italian made ISA 130 ft megayacht($16 million).

    Everyone has a different idea of what anonymous means.

    Why in the hell would you wanna hide under some rock after working so hard to make it big?...unless you made the money illegally.

  3. Wow, so you have met all the lone geniuses out there? How do you know that some have not cracked the code? Maybe some lone geniuses realize what they did and got scared. Maybe they got paranoid. Maybe they have studied money and realize that money creation of the type that many seek here is a double edged sword?

    Dalmation, you are a piece of work, my friend.

  4. Solomon, or Suleiman, depending on whether you are a son of Hagar or Sarah, had his chinks. It took him most of his life to realize that wisdom was godly and not earthly. He wasted a lot of time, and that was his great regret. Now that we have his story, we need not follow the same path.

  5. Well, I guess anything is possible. However the overwhelming evidence is it's a myth. Unicorns may be interdimensenal beings also, but that's very doubtful. B

    If I'd won that much wealth. I'd try to start some businesses or at least buy into some franchises and hire some managers since I'm probably not a good manager. Do my part in hiring and getting this shoddy economy going again.

    I wouldn't want to go on those shows. Not even for hot gold diggers or crazies like Darva Conger.

  7. Problem is your logic is flawed. It is very very likely that people who have cracked the market code would want to live very low key lives for a bunch of different reasons.

    The powerball winner often catches pure hell after winning the pot. Now imagine the perception if people believed that powerball winner could just win it again if they wanted to.

    Couldn't we follow it just part way? What, Wisdom won't be able to find us later on??? They will stop publishing Ecclesiastes?

    I just got to the age where men are in short supply and I'm surrounded by lots of women that like to rub their fingers through my curly hair and treat me to.. well treat me to things all weekend sometimes...

    All things in due time is my motto.. so is "It's a good day to die!" but whatever, that's my inner Amerind Warrior genetic coding... and I'm years beyond warring... I'll enjoy all this attention but after awhile, I'll get going right again, I'll find that Straight and Narrow thingy, I know I left it around here somewhere... What did happen to that anyhow????
