*OT* correction to MSFT millionaires
The 26 February Economist had an
article which included a few things
about income disparity in Seattle.

I guess I have been a little out of
touch with how much wealth Microsoft
generates. The article claims that there
are 23,500 workers earning an average of
$287,700 a year each here in the Seattle
area. Unless they all blow it all, that
suggests that there are tens of thousands
of MSFT millionaires--from income alone.
Add those who have become wealthy off the
share price...

So that brings me down a notch, and the
tax advisor will probably bring me down
another notch when I see him later this
morning--and then the market will finish
the spankin' on Monday.

Still, I briefly felt like a million bucks.
I think I'll drive that '72 Nova (still have
not got rid of it) over to the tax place today,
maybe I can pretend I am Warren Buffet. <g>
And why stop there, maybe I should get for myself
a tutu and I can be tinkerbell while I'm at it.

<ROFL>
