JetBlue passenger yells: "I’m 28, I make $4 million a year. What do you do?"

Even if you saved $200/month by not paying for cable (which sounds incredibly high to me), that’s only $2,400 a year. Your definition of wealthy doesn’t sound accurate to me.

I thought of responding, but he managed to come off as immature, pretentious, and insulting in one tiny post. A trifecta! :expressionless:

I’ve just seen that elsewhere, yes. Hey ho.

Hey, ho what? Which have you seen?

Being wealthy, but not having a lot of money? The ladder/OSHA issue? The cable vs. Netflix? Insulting several readers of BoingBoing?

Just curious.:wink:

That’s my take too minus the anger. I usually wake up a bit during takeoff (yes takeoff) then I am out till they start the landing process. One time a well intentioned middle seater woke me up because the beverage cart was serving our row. She didn’t want me to lose out on a free can of soda. I wanted to punch her.

This really called for a better response. Something like: “What do I do? I pleasure your wife while you’re at meetings.FOR FREE”

Now you know the secret to getting rich.

It is how they stay wealthy. They make a bit at some point or another - or even over a very long period of time - then they scrimp around protecting it. Can’t blame 'em! Although miserable, it seems to work.
