Wonder how many millionaires I know...
« on: April 13, 2006, 12:55:51 am »
So I'm posting this here because I want to brag.

Quote
According to a study, the American city with the highest concentration of millionaires is Los Alamos— a place known more for gamma rays and gigabytes than glitz and glamour.
    The study published Friday by Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine says one in five Los Alamos households has a net worth of more than $1 million, excluding the value of the family's primary residence.

Full Story

Of course this does explain why some many people have hummers!

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

I actually know one. I've met and been to parties with many rappers on occasion though.
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

The link to the full story went all gay on me, but they actually state in the article that home price is not included.

No, net worth is determined by liquid assets. Property isn't considered a liquid asset.
