Oh I'd love to get there buddy,but it's a long con...a looong, looong con. With my commitments to my ex and my family (inc my brothers and sisters and nieces and nephews) I'll probably stroke out in my squash rows before I ever make it. But I suppose that's probably the root of it, what I consider "rich" and what they consider "rich" are entirely dissimilar. I can't call the proceeds of exploitation wealth, I call it a liability. I don't want my descendants (hopefully still doing what daddy did - or better, otherwise I wouldn't buy the property rights) to find themselves with their necks in a noose. Honestly, if I tried to do what everyone else was doing - to get "rich"- I'd just lose money. I've tried it.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
