Default Bass Ackwards

Makes me realize that life is bass ackwards, people such as health workers, teachers, and cleaning people etc, are more valuable than someone who can throw a football or dunk a basketball etc. Am I allowed to include lab people?

Default Yup

Got that right man, entertainers-- sports, music, movies-- make a fortune based on their unique talents, and their ability to distract us from the sometimes grim realties of our own lives. The folks that actually make our own lives happen-- teachers, coaches, nurses, techs, cashiers, and the guy or gal that hauls your trash, well, they are at or near the middle bottom of the wage pool. I don't deny the talented admiration for their extraordinary abilities, they are indeed marvelous and make life a bit more tolerable, but I owe everything I've got to a few teachers, coaches, and the trash guy who makes my life, and home, a better place.

Default ...... row, row, row!

Well, Tiger Woods supposedly has a 155', 20-million dollar yacht with three stories, named PRIVACY.

Thing is about huge yachts like these ...... you is better off and have more fun with an old, used-$400, 12' aluminum rowboat with two 78" wood oars and pinned oar locks so's you get a perfect row, every time, and don't have to learn how to feather the oars ...... row, row, row!

Exactly! Ironic that some people prefer boats that are bigger than houses or houses bigger than inns (recent $20MM thread), when it's so obvious that something smaller would give more intrinsic pleasure.

I’ve seen Tiger Woods yacht many times he docks it at Dannford Inn Port Jefferson LI NY every summer which is right next to the Bridgeport Port Jefferson ferry. It’s a beautiful boat.

Say hey ...... if Tiger spent more time rowing a 12'-$400 rowboat, he'd be in better shape and be a better golfer, and probably would not have smashed up the car and injured his hip and leg or something after drinking too many adult beverages ..... say hey! .....

I am sure a lady friend would disagree.

If Tiger spent more time rowing his $20mm yacht, think how in shape he would be.

BTW, Bezos just purchased a $500mm yacht. I'd think you'd call that a ship.
