Hi Phil, And I agree with your observation. Some old "bluebloods" may inherit it, but most today have earned their status after years of hard work. No... not day-trading the market. In fact, I only know one or two who have made it to multimillionaire status by "trading" and they are essentially MMs in their own way. A little story for a Sunday afternoon. About 20+ years ago I went into a small custom shirt shop in New York to have a dozen new dress shirts made as the back of the collars had worn. When I walked in, Sy, the owner greeted me and asked me if I could wait until he finished with his customer who he introduced me to... none other than Nelson Rockefeller. Nelson R. and I began a conversation and apparently he had the same problem with his collars... the inside back of them were frayed. One big difference... he had brought in his shirts to have the collars turned while I was there to buy new shirts. His comment... "that's how I make and keep my money... don't squander it if there is an option". I learned a fast lesson and, yes, I ended up having my collars turned too <VBG>. So, Phil, I believe you are right... especially with the typo <GGG>! << I would not be surprised in the least if there were "a lot" of millionaires who demand to receive the best value for their money - out of principal. >> I think you meant "principle"... but then again they both work!! Be Right... Sit Tight!!! Best always, Marty
