Given this, I haven't quite made the connection that therefore Obama is the problem ...

only because you are clueless and not a small business owner, and probably never have been a small business owner.

Yeah I mean, when you were building that stunning house we didin't hear from you for about 6 months ... then when you fiinished and treated us to pix of the build ... well, ever since you've been spending an exorbitant amount of time upholding the conservative Obama/Dem/Lib-bash agenda ...

Have you been able to expand the LATB enterprises to make this a profitable venture ?

you have no clue what you speak.

1st...while building, I posted regularly with pics of the progress.

2nd...I bash no one, I post facts & opinion

3rd...no, I cannot expand...the market for new homes suck...and it's the dems fault. (unbiased research will prove it for you.)
It's so bad, I recently finished an addition on that same home for the new owner...my 1st home improvement contract in 20+ years...

and btw...that home you speak of...
I built it on MY property...with MY money...for MYSELF...I lived in it for over a year...hoping the market would recover and I could make a decent profit...it didn't...and I didn't.

when is the last time you took such risk?

The truth is Lars ... everybody is hurting ... nothing shameful about it ... I make a better living off it as an Administrator of charities than in good times ... this is because the wealthy are more generous ... I'm not exactly sure why as I don't see the tax-break incentive unless real-wealthy ... and I give myself bonus's depending on it ... I do well ... I didn't mean to get into this ... it was an idea I had I started to sell around at the time of the 2008 crash ... but I saw it coming in 2006 ...

Previous to this I was a sole-proprietor in custom home-theatre building ... I did well in this too ... I would still do it but I like what I do now ... I have about one worthless expensive B.A. degree that makes for a nice wall decoration ..

I too want to wake-up in a fishing boat with a bad sunburn because I fell asleep from a bad day of fishing ... but I'm busy now ... so I'm glad I'm tired when there's so much to do and not enough time ... could be worse ...

Not much going on in my wife's field. I've got good contacts with USFS and NPS and many of them are on travel restrictions, etc. Things are tight.

'Administrator of Charities' sounds like you live in the DC region....

most national 'charities' are located there for head offices....gotta keep that tax deduction and political influence thing going....

so that explains your PROGRESSIVE point of view....

and even IF my olde tyme viewpoint mistakes your physical location, your psychological and communication viewpoint remains valid....


BET ME???

Kind of cool isn't it ?

A progressive who makes a living selling poverty-for-profit to the rich ... I do pretty good too ... perfectly virtuous here amongst Alabama baptist christian conservatives ...

Good point ... for years they watched me post on the other place ... I became a star and it actually contributed to the happy-health of the office ...
