Not a chance! I have a long list of things I want to do which will keep me plenty busy! 

 

No I'm talking about running out of money.

Doesn’t matter what they are called, what matters is that you have enough of them!

 

but you're going to need somewhere to keep it.  like some kind of container, and a container for Canadian money is a Loonie bin

Loonies are coins. I prefer paper (or what used to be paper) and electronic transactions.

You have no clue what you are talking about in this case. Just because I am retired, doesn’t mean I have stopped earning.

I know what you do. You don’t have clients who have retired at 49? Maybe you are not as good at your job as you thought? Tell them to give me a call.

Really? I am stating facts. No argument. 

 

 

I've seen your "facts". No matter how much you piss and moan about the unfairness of it all, no Canadian hockey team has brought home The Cup for 25 years. That's 1/4 of a century, halfway to your first retirement or half the time since Margaret Trudeau flashed her beaver for all to see.

He’s a rich man of leisure, who boasts endlessly about it, and spends a lot of time on here posting horribly crass comments.

 

if I had all that $$, I wouldn’t be spending my time here in complete alienation like that....

 

just sayin....

Well good for you! Sometimes it’s fun to slum. I might get bored of it?

I know a lot of wealthy people, I’m sure not one, and they don’t boast about all the money they have.

 

a real Canadian with $$$ would never brag about having it, we know how much resentment it spawns in a jiffy

In person they wouldn’t. On the internet to a bunch of losers? Hell yeah!

I can't wait to see how many are from liberal congressional districts. Trump is enough of a troller to make sure the Pentagon drains them first.

Does it not strike you as odd that they are naming projects that are 3 times the amount he is looking for? That'll keep 'em guessing.

No, it's about what I expected. Hell, the whole 'national emergency' thing has been a feint from the beginning.

 

The idiots are chasing their tails crying about it, while he's using other laws to legally re-appropriate the money.

If they were smart, the Democratic House would respond by taking those line items out of the 2020 budget request with the justification "If you can reallocate it to spend on a wall, you don't need it to begin with."

 

They are, of course, not that smart.
