That is what my husband says too. It is true, maybe not politically acceptable but just common sense. So I says to the kids, go out and make some money and be in charge of things. Run your own railroad, work hard, stay after, check and double check and you will soon be the boss, THEN you get more money...and more stress, and people can look down on you and tell you that you are greedy.


But Don't do anything illegal or immoral, because I am still your mother and I will hunt you down and whatever the law or even public opinion could do to you would pale in comparison. .
