Thanks for playing, if you were nice and if you weren’t…well…when you go to hell, you might find yourself trapped in that bag where things will keep getting dumped in (LV wallet, water bottle, flatulent lap dog) and thus, on you. :) What a visual…

I did think that the comments here at SM were starting to push the edge of the envelope but the comments on leveraged sellout were simply horrible , misogynistic and racist.

The BSA's were found to live very modestly for their means, the IA's very extravagantly. A classic BSA was some guy who started life as an auto mechanic, raised his family in a 3-bedroom ranch house in a middle income neighborhood, then later became the owner of a repair shop netting profits in the six figures.
