I live in a half-million-dollar house and need furnishings and a car that reflect this new fact."[/quote] Hopefully, she can show me how I missed some finer point she made, and isn't actually <b>this</b> clueless about the subject, because I think very highly of her![/quote] Take that high opinion down a notch! They let me have a degree in political science <i>without ever requiring an economics class.</i> My brother, who is not a real estate millionaire, helpfully pointed out that this is like giving someone a degree in cars without ever making them study engines.[/quote]
