I'm impressed, even his mom wouldn't have said that.. oh well yes maybe his mom would. All I'm saying is that i've got subscribers who earn way more than I do or Anthony or anyone else so maybe we should all just worship the almighty dollar and be done with it. The more they have they more deification they deserve. That puts Bill Gates right up there in G-ds territory.. not to mention Paul Allen. So in essence your creed is the more money your make at the earliest age entitles to to pontiff status.. What you need is to spend a few weeks in the Peace Corps, volunteer to Habitat to Humanity and see the light my friend, Don't just send a check and announce it just go there yourself without a camera crew and just roll up your sleeves and meet real people.

I'm not saying I'm anything like that. I'm just saying that living in Israel through 2 wars, I've seen things and American doctors (like my dad) volunteering in bases with wounded or working in trauma units where helicopters would land every half hour with extremely critical boys in their late teens. Anyone making a little dough just is not impressive. This whole market thing is just a job, fraught with manipulation, self-serving and not so pure of heart. Some of us are a little more straghtlaced and try to keep it honest a possible. But its all just something to make a few bucks and hopefully pass along some incite to others, but as far as 'it being great and making anyone's life better' that's bizarre to say the least.
