<<So kids today get too much dough via loans ?>> I think that the very first day they walk in to sign up they pass tables offering credit cards, and loans.

Blackie, when you go to Berkeley these days the competition is so tough the kids cannot work. 1/2 the incoming class is asian. These kids coming out of rural asia study day and night. The whole family supports them. My kids had to study to compete. And they did and they did. They studied real hard, both of them. I was not going to ask them to work when I can play poker, and trade stocks, and give them the money-lol. I am just glad I was able to do it. I am so proud of them. They worked their asses off and I rewarded them as best I could. And they tell me all the time: "dad I really understand how much you gave to me, and I am so grateful, they tell me. My younger one just returned from attending the university in New Zealand for a year as an exchange student. She had so much fun, and I was so pleased to enjoy her having fun.! Real simple.
