I’ll barbecue any FReeper a burger for a million bucks! What do I win?
Anybody can put a $175.00 price tag on a burger, it takes someone special to find people stupid enough to buy them.
“A fool and his money...”
I remember Suze Orman saying “Denied!,Denied!,Denied!” when a caller phoned in to ask if he could buy a $1,000 Golden Opulence IceCream Sundae! Ridiculous ... Do you really need a financial advisor to tell you it’s stupid to spend $1K on ice cream? http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/340520/1000_ice_cream_the_golden_opulence.html
Does it have bacon?
Everything is relative. An executive making $875,000 a year spending $175 on this hamburger is no different than a taxi cab driver making $40,000 a year eating a $8 hamburger lunch at Applebees. Do the math, it's the exact same proportion of income.
And if you were Donald Trump getting this hamburger, you'd be slumming because that $175 hamburger is a much smaller slice of his income.
The bottom line is, if you can afford to eat this hamburger, than you should be proud of yourself and you deserve to have the very best.
