What a Waste of Money!
http://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/i...er_default
How to waste money on worthless research. I admire the philanthropists in Kazoo as so many contribute to worthwhile causes anonymously. In the Grand Rapids area all the wealthy Hollanders insist on having their name associated with every $ they give. Getting tired of all public places being named Devos, VanAndel or Meijer.

That's a real nice hotel, probably better than anything in backwater Denver.

Four Seasons Denver- 5 star rated
While it only offers a view of the Rockies and not a beautiful view of the river and Mexican Town, it'll have to do.

So? Sound fiscal management is always fresh.

And it is owned by DeVos and VanAndel (Amway).
Downtown GR is looking pretty nice though, these days. Have taken many walks there on slow work days. What is amazing is how little traffic there is. Reminds me of a sleepy little town.

Pretty simple. My choice of phone plan demonstrates fiscal responsibility. Your family plan is the epitome of fiscal waste.
Sorry you've yet to figure that out.

The difference is, your choice is all you can afford. My plan is the same amount each month whether I have 2 people on it or 5 people, and because it's tied to my place of employment it's dirt cheap. The boy likely makes ten times what you make, and still saved himself $50 a month while on my plan. The rich get richer.........and the losers whine about it.
Just to make you feel even worse. The poor boy had a patient this month who was in a car accident, and had a lot of oral injuries. He required 3 implants, several crowns, and several extractions. It took three appointments of about 12 hours total. The man's auto insurance paid the bill---$20,000. Let's see, 20,000/12= $1667 an hour. Rack that.

No, it's all about making you feel as poor and as worthless as I can. You like starting it, but the blowback---you don't seem to like as much.
How'd the minimum wage protest go for ya?

RE: What a Waste of Money!
Let me assure you, I can certainly afford one of the "gold plated" cell phone plans. They're just incredibly wasteful...and I hate wasting money. I mean, but go ahead with your largess, as you're obviously riding your son's coattails, moocher.

Moocher? I bought his dinner on Saturday. No coattail riding required. Just like to point him out to you because it seems to drive you nuts.
Hell, every kid with a minimum wage job can afford an Iphone. But you're not a kid. You're a guy who has lost several jobs, and who is now on his own trying to make ends meet. Your economic choices are out of necessity. Nothing wrong with that, but if you insist on dumping on everyone who has something you don't have or can't afford, I'll be happy to remind you of the difference in success and failure.
