LORD GNADENBURG - Sorry , Me Lord, very uppity of me to suggest you should post to YOUR PROFESSIONAL FORUM. Forgive me M'Lord. (Tugging forelock). By the way, how far back can you trace your ancestors? All the way back to the cattle duffers armed with swords maybe? Then their kids (sorry - Descendants) were knighted for supplying the serfs to another bandit with a bigger pile of rocks (Castle - I think its called!) Wasn't very good at this at the Ag.College, dad didn't have a mansion or factory in The City, so I just used to ride on the trams when I was passing through. But I DID manage to get a Senior Commercial PILOTS licence later, and helped start somethings. Oh, and we (the guys and me) used to provide an actual Service to People, by actually having them pay us to regularly convey them between places marked "A" and "B", and sometimes with other companies we got to go to "C", and "D", and all the letters of the alphabet. (Day and night - I kid you not!). And you know, in my working and middle class way, I really liked it. Do you provide a service to others free or for a fee, or is it all just greed for you? How did you get to find the love affair of your life with Real Estate, M'Lord ? With all your Squillions, and KNOWLEDGE, there must be quite a story there, if you INSIST on denigrating the effort of professionals in lesser occupations .
Me, well I don't want any more than what I already have. Compared to what some have in some of the places I have worked, by their standards I am already well off. (I don't have or need a title other than Captain). What I just have to do for the next 20 or 30 years, is to make sure it doesn't decrease or run out because of the greedy speculation of the get rich quick schemes of the Whiz Kids that are now in charge of the nations and worlds pursestrings. People like you, M'Lord.
Sorry, another specialist in the medical profession once told me that I Didn't Suffer Fools Gladly. I completely agree with the finding, to which I might add that I also don't take kindly to those who denigrate others as a group the way you have done.
