I love the UK, her people, and her history.

That being said, I'd rather be a poor janitor in Lubbock, than a rich stockbroker in London.

Howdy neighbor! Check out my profile. You aren’t exaggerating: You would have to be rich stockbroker to afford a house in Britain that a janitor could in fact buy here in Lubbock.

I was talking to a girl I knew when she was young. She ran off to France and married a Fwench guy, had two children. She back in the States getting a divorce. They lived in London, and were making $400K/yr. She said they never hardly went out and were just getting by.

Really? If you were a rich Brit stockbroker, you could probably live anywhere you wanted and do your business via computer. Poor janitors don’t get to travel much.
