Soooo, it's a tourist attraction?

This is how I know that you're broke. You don't have any wealth. If you did, you would've never made this thread.

I may as well add you to the list of CD posters (aka "posers") that claim to be rich/ have wealth and other nonsense.
A majority of the cons posting on here claim to be wealthy & claim to own their own business. I chuckle everytime someone "claims" that little ditty.

Why don't we ship the poor to really poor countries so they see why so many in the world believe all US citizens are middle class. Give some in site to what really poverty is. Then maybe they will quit saying charity begins at home.

Yes. You can chuckle to yourself, adjust your lapel, and then leave after checking your 14k watch.

14K? That's it?!??! Back among the plebes with you.

<<<chuckles, adjusts lapel, leaves after checking $40 Casio watch>>>>>

My best guess as to who the OP might be: 1. young 2. dumb. 3. wannabe nouveau riche

When you've got money and you're making more, gloating rarely fits into any successful business plan.

After hubris comes nemesis.

As an appraiser, my assistant and I would routinely go into the 'hood'. You would find hard-working people trying to make ends meet. But then you would find entire neighborhoods infested with drug houses, etc.

And we would always go armed. Why? Because the cops told us to. Cops have showed up at vacant homes and waited while we did our work because of the danger. We attended a touring Broadway show at the music theater in the fairgrounds, located just south of downtown, but right in the hood. As we were leaving in traffic, headed the half-dozen blocks to the freeway, a gunfight broke out along the street (gunfire very visible ). No cops showed up.

You do NOT want to go sightseeing in bad neighborhoods. If you do, you are a target, and also just flat stupid.
