Come on, it’s still happening today, Janet Yellen is the 3rd Jewish Fed Chairperson in a row. Everyone should get a fair go, based solely on their ability, nothing else.

No John, I think Goofnuts got it right. Stealing does not make one a good business person. ie Geico- just look it up on the internet. This, of course, is all IMHO. The OLD man is all about trusting in his own wealth and about control. I disagree with almost everything he says. My trust is in God- period. He doesn’t have that- so he has nothing of any real value. He’s just an old fool. His time is just about up and then he’ll never be mentioned again except one final page on a tabloid magazine that announces he’s dead. He’d love to control from the grave but once he bites the big one, everyone he “thought” loved him with be laughing at him and spending the money he hoarded. I’d rate him as a very big loser.

Bill Gates left Harvard as a Freshman in college, not as a student in the business school! The smartest people at Harvard are across the street from the B-school.

If you look carefully at the photo above, you will see that Bill Gates and Warren Buffett aren’t playing bridge as partners. They’re playing as opponents!

Buffett also refused to fly in those private jets.
Until he didn’t.

At the time I was living a couple of blocks from ground Zero, with a family, and asbestos still being cleaned off my building, and the foul smell of a thousand dead bodies a few blocks away. I just didn’t’ like what he was saying.

Pretty crazy you were “mad” at him for saying America would be facing a nuclear event someday. WE WILL! You must be one of those people who doesn’t like to “say or hear” things as you feel safer if you are pretending things don’t exist. I bet you set your clock ahead 10 minutes too…….

JA personalized the issue by talking about his daughters in the first place by publicly saying he wouldn’t send them to college. I just expanded on that by taking the other side and pointing out the simple truth that JA’s daughters most likely will never become doctors, lawyers, CEOs, or get other well-known high-paying jobs in our society unless they get college degrees first because med, law, and business schools simply won’t even consider you unless you have an undergraduate degree. And everyone knows statistically there’s a better chance of making big bucks by becoming a doctor than by trying to become the next Mark Zuckerberg or NBA player, which is not within the realm of possibility for most people.

richer you are right in your point ipso facto, because the average Joe will be better served getting that high degree for his medical career, or especially for his fat federal job/paycheck. But you are so wrong when you personalize it to JA daughters. You seem to forget that they are JA daughters, and his sponsorship/savvy/contacts/guidance is worth trillion times more than any conventional ‘education’ or degree.

For the average sheeple, his best bet is keep his nose clean, get a degree/high degree, and hope for a federal job and stay out of fema camp, unless he is the commandant.

JA compelling writing sir, thanks for sharing with the sheeple.
