    Why do people feel a need to spew how rich they are?? Do rich people do that??

    I guess only the fake liers do that. I mean the guy with the most outrageous war stories was never even in the military.

    People can sniff out bull **** better than you think OP.


    Cheers and btw I have no wealth I have cars. I'm poor.

    I think we can find 120 members willing to put up 1M if we can see that kind of return ;)

    I found all my money between the couch cushions.


    (This is the best thread ever, I sort of regret not pitching in while the OP was still taking the risk of trying to keep up the facade...)

    +1. Says "I don't actually" almost as well as "I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you".

    Funny thing is the only people who get suckered into scams are usually so arrogant they think they're so smart they won't get pulled in.

    Ok, I'll fess up...

    I made my fortune in Bans.

    Rob's bank automatically sends me a bonus anytime I ban a user here..

    And, considering that I've banned... oh, I don't know... 5,000? Maybe? (Most of the spammer persuasion), I have quite a tidy little nest egg now... MORE than enough to have my Rolex Daytona Cleaned... once... at a do-it-yourself car wash...

    :D

    Some do and some don't.

    Over the years, I've found the ones that don't, to be more grounded and amiable.

    The one's that do, are just plain crass and vulgar. Perhaps they feel a need to compensate?

    Well, I think we found someone with their head higher up their ass than the OP.

    Well done!

    What an utterly pointless and insulting post. And it's only January...

    I think asjoseph is on to something. I was at cars and coffee the other day and we were talking about whether Ferrari using forced induction would be good for the brand. Normal car stuff, but then out of nowhere a pair of white doves landed on the hood of my friends new 458 and started chirping a love song.

    My buddy, fearing the birds would ruin his paint job, quickly pulled out a baseball bat and whacked them over a fence in a puff of feathers. "HOME RUN!" he yelled.

    The entire C&C roared in laughter. One person asked, "is it more fun to fire employees or run over small animals in an Italian car"? This lead to a contest where we spent the next hour trying to run over as many squirrels as possible.

    For a moment I thought, maybe these people are jerks, but then I realized it was time for lunch and my friend Bob had prepared his trademark kitten&puppy stew for all to enjoy.

    I still think his nickname/alias/alter ego is the funniest thing about this whole mess.

    Having said that I am fully aware that mine is just as pompous.

    But I was a teenager when I made it up, so... sounds like we might be dealing with a teenager, too... now to see whose wealth I have to help make to change my name on here..
