Any miilionaires here?

[MisterV]

Becoming a millionaire isn't as difficult as it was back in the day due to inflation, but acquiring that kind of wealth is still a worthy accomplishment.

So without further ado I open the floor to any member who cares to claim their net worth is a million US dollars or greater.

Optional credit for those who mention how they acquired the money.

There will be doubters, there will be blood.

The Canadian money in the front, is pretty comical, compared to the tonne of greenbacks!

Sometimes you wind up getting 100's with a bunch of pinholes in them. Some so many the bill validators reject them. You can spot these bills when feeding the validators seeing the light shine thru. I always imagine that they came from some stash like that whose owner didn't bother to prevent pest infestation.

I seem to recall that at one time, probably late seventies through the eighties that most one hundred dollar bills had detectable amounts of cocaine on them.

Shut it down, MisterV's narcissism. ---> Studies in Romanticism.

https://anagram-solver.net/shut%20it...m?partial=true

Narcissists are addictive personalities and narcissism is commonly co-morbid with addictions to drugs, alcohol, sex, food, spending and gambling. It has been suggested that Narcissists have a higher rate of ADHD than the general population.

They are often highly competitive and argumentative. They lash out when presented with opinions that contradict their own or when confronted with their own lies or bad behaviors.

Even after finding out that you are dealing with a mental disorder, if you don't protect or remove yourself from the situation, you may find yourself entering into a state of mind where you instinctively try to fix or fight the narcissist's illogical attitudes and behaviors.

If you ever do manage to get "one-up" on a narcissist, it is likely to be a hollow "victory" at best. They may rage, play the victim, or disappear. None of these outcomes gives the victim any true satisfaction.

Narcissists can be highly intelligent, witty, talented, likable, and fun to be around. They can also elicit sympathy like nobody's business.

Narcissists are excellent liars and many prefer to lie even when telling the truth would be more beneficial to them; which suggests that lying is a hallmark of this pathology.

Baiting - A provocative act used to solicit an angry, aggressive or emotional response from another individual.

Frivolous Litigation - The use of unmerited legal proceedings to hurt, harass or gain an economic advantage over an individual or organization.

Gaslighting - The practice of brainwashing or convincing a mentally healthy individual that they are going insane or that their understanding of reality is mistaken or false. The term “Gaslighting” is based on the 1944 MGM movie “Gaslight”.

I wonder whether any AP's claim to have done well enough in life to grab the brass ring?

Not just from gambling: from life.

[MaxPen]

Something like 3% of the US population are worth at least one million. So it is safe to assume there are millionaires posting here. Wealth is very subjective. How much is a liquidated Elon Musk really worth? What would the value of his Tesla shares be if he sold it all. Would there be enough buyers to absorb the holdings without crashing the stock price?

Almost everyone in Zmbabwe were billionaires. Could that happen in the US?

The amount of money a person has is meaningless to another person without knowing their expenses. There's a big difference between a Rob Singer with a campers worth of expenses in life and a person like mDawg sporting watches that cost as much as some houses. I like to measure wealth by how far forward a person could carry themselves into the future without further production and change in lifestyle.

Frugality and lifestyle plays a huge part no doubt. Also to take into account, is age, health, life expectancy. A 65 year old with about 20 or so years left on the clock( assuming decent health) who lives within his means, 1 million net worth is a comfortable middle class lifestyle, when you include Social security. A 45 year old who has about 40 years left on the clock, ( assuming decent health and average variance) even if he's as frugal as the 65 year old, it's pretty tight because of the time left to spend it. All this assumes, no other means of extra income coming in. Also the younger guy has 20 years, before he draws the Social security. 1 million is not anywhere what it used to be, but it can be a solid middle class lifestyle for most if spent wisely. When you start getting into the 3-5 million range, there's no excuse, not to be able to live very well at that point, regardless of age and life expectancy.

According to Axel you have more than enough money to last you the rest of your life.

Can we assume you have several million?

I owe Axel an apology. He didn’t say MaxPen had more money than he’ll ever need for the rest of his life. Here is his exact quote “I can assure you MaxPen is legit, trustworthy and good guy with more than enough money to his name.”

Not sure how I mixed what he said with what someone else said. At my age I’m allowed.

But regardless how much is more then enough money to his name? Not really a big difference when you consider the two.

You should probably apologize to the forum as a whole for being a tard. What kind of idiot runs around a room asking people how much money they have? What answer do they expect to get?

Axel brought up how much money you have. He said you have more than enough money to your name.

Personally, I don’t care one way or the other how much you or anyone else has. I’m just trying to put a figure on that comment.

I never asked anyone how much money they had. Once again, your comments are just you being the asshole you are trying to one up again without any thought and posting the first thing that comes to your degenerate mind.

But since we’re on the subject of fucking idiots; what kind of fucking idiots want to post on anonymous gambling forums about how much money they made and make from beating casinos with no confirmed facts?

One more thing for the record Maxdepend, you defiantly can’t shine my shoes. You’re out of your casino league.

I know what’s next. You’re going to want to bet 20K with me about something fucking stupid.

Take a fucking walk.

I mentioned AP's.

To my mind, the ideal way to be AP would be to first make a lot of money doing something else, then "retire" and spend your remaining years at AP, not needing to win in order to be comfortable.

However I suspect most AP's do not fall in this category.

Most APs that I know personally have the funds to carry themselves into the future measured in years. That is precisely why the months long shutdowns weren't even a blip on the radar in their lives. APs tend to think long term, live within their means, have minimal if any debt. They are strong individualists fully in control of their lives and take responsibility for themselves asking nothing from no one.

There are many people that are lumped into the AP pool that probably have no business being included. In that respect you could compare the group to a group of realtors. In real estate 20% of the agents sell 80% of all properties. So if you're an AP in the bottom 80% of the pool you most likely better have something else to fall back on.

Your idealism is based on what your view of AP earning potential is adjusted to fit your perceived idea of ideal lifestyle.
