Wow. This NY Slimes article is just one big barf alert.
Kristoff is just piling on the “rural farm boys go to the big city” allusions in an effort to down play the fact that this guy is a not only a Harvard graduate but also a FINANCIAL CONSULTANT.
See when they want something from everybody else they are just dumb hicks because only a dumb hick would end up in the situation his friend Scott is in. Get it? They are soooo folksy.
See references from the article below:
“friends through the Future Farmers of America”
“room together for moral support among all those city slickers.”
“We were the country bumpkins”
“we kept deer rifles under our beds”
“the only champion judge of dairy cattle”
Haaaaaavad grad, financial adviser, quits to play poker and read books...
Someone tell me why I should pay for this parasite and his multiple “unfortunate” decisions?
Bingo and look how uber worldly and cosmopolitan Kristoff is these days. A Chinese wife of 30 years and interracial children! He is some hayseed!
