Street,

I still fail to see where I claimed I was a gov't worker. (and I certainly have nothing against gov't employees, unlike Street).

I stated a fact.

Now here's a little revelation about the how "thestreet" really thinks. From a PM to me:

GET TO WORK EMPLOYEE!!! Hahahahaha...

Ho does that feel-- having a boss? Working for hours. Must be real rewarding. And real exciting eh. Could not make it in the real world?

The "I need someone to watch of me." syndrome-- how sad.

You people sure do not make the world change-- just sit by and watch-- hoping someone will ask you to play

Now I have to ask you all, (and I'm sure this is the last thing you all want to read). How many people on this thread either work for wages, or spent a good portion of their lives doing so??

I really want to know whether I'm as far out of touch with reality as "street" claims I am, given that he claims to be a bigwig author and self-made man.

Is the attitude he portrays in his PM to me "elitist" or not??

Now I don't know what the "real world" is that he's talking about, but I don't rub elbows with many people who don't have bosses and collect salaries.

That is the "real world" as I and most other people know it.

So Street, maybe you need to go out and get a job. If only to work and strive toward some semblance of humanity and humility.

You certainly don't impress me with your "airs" of superiority.
