With california sucking 1K a month out of my paycheck for money i don't owe them and the company that has the W2's i lost to prove it taking 4 months to tell me they won't resend them and having move 2 times to take jobs after 6 months of unemployment to finally stabalize in a job and am finally catching up (but will probably still lose my stuff in storage) and i only have 5K in debt (but as i have learned when people want your money they want it now! but they owe you money it could be 6-20 weeks before you see something). *Sigh* I had looked to sites like yours to help with advice to kep my head above water till this all evened out and took offense to this posting and then lashed out. You did nothing wrong, i just hate how the US finacial system has set themselves up, and if you make 1 mistake you spend more time and man hours trying to correct it and still recieve a black spot! And, wierdly enough, I have met Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum (now deceased), when i was in UAE right after the ground war in Kuwait! He was very friendly (and yes very extravagant, but not overtly). Again my apologies keep up the good work!! My apologies!!

Sometimes they don't. But I'd hardly consider talking someone donating $30 billion for the greater good to be an afront to anyone. It's not like I started writing about the extravagancies of the Prince of Dubai, or something like that. And rest assured... I never will. ;) Charles: I guess my main goal here is to share interesting tidbits about money that happen to strike my fancy. 90% (or more) of the time these things have to do with saving money, investing, taxes, retirement, protecting your credit, or some such.

But, to have rich peoples actions (albeit a good thing)touted is an afront to what i thought this site was trying to do. Then again, you never really state what your goal or game plan is. oh, i usually come to your site to learn possible ways of saving money.
