How did you amass your wealth?

[/ QUOTE ]

When the low carb diet craze really got going about 3 years ago, I shorted wheat and corn futures and went long in pork bellies. I then parlayed that into going long in North Sea Brent crude oil futures when we invaded Iraq. I am now waiting for a poker website to start spreading a 5K/10K game so I can take it even further.

Monetarily not very. That being said, I have yet to meet a person with whom I would wish to trade places.

[M2d]

I have a beautiful wife and my first kid on the way. I'd say I'm very wealthy. How I got there? much game, my son... much game.

on the monetary front, the bank hasn't reposessed my house yet, so I'm making it. but every time I need cash I have to drop down a level on party.

[Paluka]

I know what I'd do if I was wealthy. Two chicks at the same time.

[spamuell]

I have $12 to my name.

I used to feel wealthy, but I now owe a bank nearly half a million dollars. They have been kind enough to let me live in one of their houses though in the meantime.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nah, not even close I'm sure, but I have no complaints. I've had reasonable sums of money at times, but instead of doing things like putting it into the stock market or buying property, I continue to flip my money back into tenuous new tech startups. Which means, at some point in the future, I'll either have a lot of money or not.

Having had various amounts of money at various times in my life, I find myself not really sweating how much money I have as long as I have more than I need to satisfy my personal bar for having a "comfortable" life and not having to have a job that I don't like.

El D,

Do you mind sharing how you made your money in the first place? Vague is cool, just like to know general paths people took in life to get where they are. (sometimes it gets me to think about new career type options) So working stiff, poker, inheritance, investments, start ups??

[/ QUOTE ]

I have rent control, the most extreme kind, and I must say I'm poorer because of it. Considering I have to make 125 bucks a month for my furnished studio about three blocks from times square, I have no drive to do anything... ever.

Yes, that's 125.00 including all hot water and other utilities. I could collect like 85 coke bottles a day and live this way for the rest of my life.

[astroglide]

i thought the rent control thing in nyc you had to live there forever, and lots of people are trying to get rid of it

[turnipmonster]

there are all sorts of ways around that, frequently people who have rent control sublet their apts and all sorts of other stuff. interested to know how rustedcorpse got his?

[RustedCorpse]

I'm running a scam essentially. I would go into detail but well public forum, Dole's internet, etc... You coming to the home game at my place this weekend, I'll explain it then in person.

So far coming...

and we're getting JBB if I have anything to say about it.

[bdk3clash]

Actual rent-controlled apartments are pretty rare in New York. Much more common is apartments that are rent stabilized, which means the rent can only go up a certain % each year. (This % is determined by the city's housing agency each year.)

RustedCorpse's situation is pretty unique. I think most rent-controlled apartments are passed down within families, and they're rarer and rarer every year.

[astroglide]

i would love to hear about this via pm or some anonymous posting

[RustedCorpse]

I think I explained it to turnip at his homegame last time. I would do so here, but it starts off with "My roomate's mother's sister..." and just gets wierder and wierder after that.

Edit: Regardless it's worthless now with the sudden appearance of a Starbucks under the building. I swear my entire small little fishbowl of existence is turning into a chuck palnahniuk novel.
