I'm Rich! Ask Me Anything!
« on: January 30, 2008, 10:56:40 AM »
My wife's company pays 48 cents per mile as a reimbursement for travel.  I don't really ever think about it.  We just pay as we go along and forget it. 

This morning I had an extra $1100.00 in my checking account.  After investigating, I learned it was a direct deposit from the company reimbursing for milage accumulated in November and December. 

I may do something wild with the money now that it has returned in a lump sum.   :cheersmate:

Carbon credits man!!!! :-)
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

Spread my work ethic, not my wealth.

Forget change, bring back common sense.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Will you "take a limousine 'cause it costs more"?  :hyper: :-)

"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

I have a funny story from the last time I was in a limo.  Let's just say too many adult beverages made me break the mirror top of the bar with my butt.

Is it really an orgasm if you fake it?

I'd like to say it was years and years ago, but it wasn't.  It happened in this century.  :innocent:

Maybe you could take the wife out to the best restaurant in town in a limo and appropriately attired. (limo redemption day)

Of course, blowing a windfall is not how most people stay "rich".  :-)

It has the same characteristics seeing how it is my own money coming back to me in a lump sum.

Ah, but for it to be the proper analogy you need to sent YOUR check to ME, since even though I didn't put the miles on my car, it isn't fair for you to get your mileage back and for me to get nothing.

Is it ok if I'm  just ashamed I got it back?

Make sure you tell her in a seductive voice to order anything on the menu and nothing is too good for his queen. :-)

It won't impress her.  She already knows anything on the Seniors Menu is fair game.

I worked on a contract that paid me for mileage to drive all over the state.  Some weeks I made as much in mileage as I did in wages.

My company just raised the rate to .505 per mile this year.  They wonder why I drive my own vehicle instead of renting one every time I travel.   :mental:
I put two Michelin tires on it last Saturday...paid cash from last weeks travel check.

They just raised my wife's rate starting Jan. 1.  I don't know what it is yet.  I'd be happy with 50 cents. :)
