Our taxes are a joke here. I paid more in taxes on my car than my parents did on their house since they label it a "sports car" and charge more. But then the roads suck, the infrastructure is crumbling, and businesses are moving out. Our county is dying since they don't put the money back into it, and the people in elected positions don't want to do anything but hope and pray.

There's a show in Spartanburg this weekend, I haven't decided if I'm going or not. The card is going to be for sale. I have no need for a PSA 10 copy of it. I might sell it and then get a cheap raw copy for the collection.

But is your state robbing other states and funding terrorists. That's what we need to know!

I'm amazed at the sales numbers on that. I would of settled at 75% . The 50% offer is not even a serious offer really

Hard to believe, but the area I live in (Sarasota/Bradenton/Lakewood Ranch) is not a cheap area to live in. It is not West Palm Beach, Naples or the Keys, but compared to most of the rest of the state, it is expensive. The catch is that the majority of the jobs in this area are in the service/hospitality sectors (this is Florida after all ), which don't pay very much.

Have you heard our governor talk? He sounds like Foghorn Leghorn, I know he isn't funding terrorists unless they are the domestic kind

BD's point here cannot be under emphasized

Legitimate generational wealth doesn't kowtow to fads

It's like when people are shocked to see the frumpy fat kid at Clemson has an absolute dime piece girlfriend and they wonder "how'd he catch her?!?!" Simple. Dude is someone's grandkid who's family has owned the same land since before the constitution existed.

The domestic kind are the worst kind. They could be your neighbors. Heck, they could be someone on here.

Talks like he would've been governor pre 1861. I can't stand him. Been invited to meet him several times by a friend that is in the state house, I've turned it down.

I dated a girl in college who told me her family had money. I thought she meant like they didn't have to wait until payday to buy stuff money. No, I went to a "party" at one of their farm properties. She told me to dress nice. For me at the time, that meant khakis and a nice button up shirt. I got there and all her parent's friends had on very expensive suits. They had "employees" that walked around dressed in very fancy clothing to serve the guests. I was completely out of my element.

They owned several peach orchards in Edgefield County and were family friends with the Thurmond family going back who knows how long. The father said the land had been in his family since "before Sherman burned stuff to the ground". They had a building full of expensive cars that nobody drove. They were for show.

When he asked what my parents did, I could tell from his reaction that his daughter didn't have the say on who she dated. It wasn't long after that when she told me she didn't think things would work out.

Different FF. Which means, somebody could make a photoshopped FT card in his FF with FF on it. I'd buy one.
