You Might Be Rich If..[Vanity/Humor/Misc]
Self | 8/06/2011 | fighttruthdecay

Posted on 08/06/2011 3:02:20 PM PDT by fight_truth_decay

I was reading a thread on "tax the rich" and thought of the old comedy bit by
Jeff Foxworthy: "You Might Be A Redneck if".
I found a few* answers meant to be on a more serious note; but added some on the satirical side.

You have shelter for your car*
Your kid decides what he wants to eat based on which kid's meal has the best toy*
You have a guest bedroom*
You run or walk for exercise, not transportation*
You can pay your satellite bill
You own a flat screen, one or more
You own a snowmobile
You own a boat
You ski
You play golf
You drive a Chevy Volt
You drive a Prius
You dress up your pets
You and your pets wear matching outfits
You wear Uggs
Your child has their own car..but
Your kids do not work
You subscribe to Rush Podcasts
You subscribe to GBTV, the Truth Lives Here
You own a NOOK
You work days
You have professional pedicures, waxing, color



TOPICS: Business/Economy; Chit/Chat; Humor; Society
KEYWORDS: bipartisan; economy; rich; socialists; standardofliving; taxtherich; youmightberichif
Feel free to add...all in fun; but also is telling on "what rich is", compared to the standard of living in the rest of the world.

YOU MIGHT BE RICH... if you’re working period. To liberals ‘’rich’’ is anyone with a job.

If you have two full bathrooms.

Which I do, but I am not rich. This building was designed by an architect who has royal lineage and apparently thought having two bathrooms is important. Even though the place is only three rooms.

The drawback is that to throw out the garbage I have to walk out the front, down the street, through a building and throw my garbage out there.

At the time I thought having two bathrooms would be great and having a walk would be alright, especially since it was normal priced. But I only ever used one bathroom and throwing the garbage out is a pain in the ass.

...YOU MIGHT BE RICH if you have a running vehicle with fewer than 60,000 miles on it.

...YOU MIGHT BE RICH if you have a savings account.

...YOU MIGHT BE RICH if you have a house and can afford to keep the lawn green. (apologies to FReepers in Texas)

...YOU MIGHT BE RICH if you can afford to make a political donation and still consider budgeting for a future political donation.

You might be rich if you work on cars as a hobby, rather than to get your kid some new shoes.

"You Might Be Rich If" you can pay a public official to violate someone else's civil rights or to get around the regulation that you paid to have imposed.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

...you’re OK with higher taxes for The Rich since you already have all your money sufficiently sheltered.

...you’re a Democrat because the rules don’t apply to you.
