POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

We've got threads with people bragging about multi-million $$ real estate holdings, others about dating 6 foot tall models, others about how they could afford a half a dozen 996's if they wanted to (but are afraid the engine's will all blow up on 'em).. Man, did someone slip too much rum in the eggnog? For the record, I'm just an average guy. I'm in my-mid 40's, married 20+ years, make a comfortable, but not excessive, income, only own a couple of houses, my wife is not a 6 foot tall model (but, I think she looks fine, and if she were 6 foot tall, we'd make an odd couple, since I'm only 5'-something myself - you know the saying "When you're nose to nose, your toes are in it, when you're toes to toes..").. I'm haven't made millions investing in offshore real estate, or google stock. I don't party with Joey Carrera or Paris whats-her-face. I guess I just don't belong here Except for one thing: compared to 90% of the world, I'm rich. I have clothes on my back, a warm dry bed to sleep in, more than enough food and drink to keep me happy, my wife and family love me and I have enough good friends to share some laughs with. Life could be a whole lot worse. Oh yeah, and HAVE A HAPPY (and safe) FREAKIN' NEW YEAR, EVERYONE! - Nick, just an average dude with a 996 in the garage..

POST 2Original post

I had wondered about that also... best to stay away from the ***** measuring competitions.

POST 5Original post

Good point Nick and well said! Happy New Year to all Rennlisters!

POST 6Original post

Happy New Year to you, we are all lucky to have these cars.

I must admit I have had some fun and good laughs with the guys that like to brag and pretend they are hot shots. It's very clear that you are for real, humble and have many riches/blessings. You are zero fun to mess with! I to am humble and don't like to talk about ME and what I got, except for my palm springs beach house, my massive guns and big di**. Other than that, I am just like your average Joey Blow... Ludwig Von Super Stud

POST 8Original post

Nick, you are not alone. I'm also mid 40s and happily married to someone I like. Sometimes I feel like the poor white trash of the Porsche community....maybe I am. I actually enjoy working on my own Porsche...it is nice to know that I'm not alone. You do belong here...it's guys like yourself that make this an enjoyable and informative site. Happy New Year!

POST 9Original post

Big ***** (AC/DC) I'm ever upper class high society God's gift to ballroom notoriety I always fill my ballroom the event is never small the social pages say I've got the biggest ***** of all (chorus) oh, I've got big ***** I've got big ***** and they're such big ***** dirty big ***** and he's got big ***** and she's got big ***** but we've got the biggest ***** of them all and my ***** are always bouncing my ballroom always full and everybody **** and **** again if your name is on the guest list no-one can take you higher everybody says I've got great ***** of fire (chorus) some ***** are held for charity and some for fancy dress but when they're held for pleasure they're the ***** that I like best my ***** are always bouncing to the left and to the right it's my belief that my big ***** should be held every night (chorus) HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL (BTW...I too am in my lower 40's, married, house, boat, some cars, no kids, good job, but definately not rich)

Quotes source post: 4924198

Yeah, I know what you mean. I am by no means rich--can you guys believe that I only own ONE house? Can you believe that I make PAYMENTS (no, not an 84-month note!) on my 996 and that I'm really NOT prepared to pay for a new engine if mine blows? I AM, however, fully prepared to deal with that if it happens. Sometimes I get the impression that I'm one of the few guys that had to pull a few strings to get behind the wheel of a lowly '99 C4 weekend toy. What can I say? I love sports cars and did what I had to do to get what I wanted. Happy New Year to everyone, or at least the people that haven't been an *** to me today!

POST 11Original post

Nick you're right. I'm going to sell one of my mansions and drop Heidi to the curb. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Thankfully, that's not what my wife says... - Nick

POST 14Original post

Nice to know that I am not the only one without a huge boat, multiple sports cars and a model for a girlfriend. I was worried for a bit. Paul

POST 15Original post

Its easy to be rich when typing on a key board. I would say that with the prices of the 996s coming down we are finding people who want to appear better off than they really are.

POST 16Original post

So does that mean that we'll soon be seeing a "I bought my 996 when they were expensive" faction?

POST 17Original post

Quotes source post: 4924100

It's been this way since I've been here. Just make sure you agree with who barks the loudest and you'll be fine.

Tell me about it! Hello Nick and Happy New Year, from another average dude with a 996.

Ha! That's all that counts Happy New Year to you.

POST 20Original post

I think it's related to the weather. Too many sleeping 996s out there . . . (not mine!)

POST 21Original post

Happy new year fellas! May we all have a prosperous new year!!!

POST 22Original post

Guys... please. Average? The median income for a working male in the USA according to your 2005 census was just under $35,000 a year. Making an even hundred would put you well north of the 90th percentile for the USA. For the world, it's almost incalculable. We are rich, and very lucky. Bickering and false modesty disguise what these discussions are really about, which is who's richER. Somebody called it "locker room talk", which I think is about right.

AllI know is, I'd have a lot more $$ to brag about if I drove a Kia and didn't race/daily drive 2 Porsches. Hint: the racing's what kills you

POST 27Original post

There is always the perspective of having a wife with a horse hobby! And you think Porsche service fees are high!

Bonus points if she rides English. Then you've got the whole wardrobe thing to finance...

POST 29Original post

Horses are expensive, my lovely wife has a more expensive hobby. It's called shopping! Agree with all above, and yes I am a early 40 year old with just one house! Yikes, I'm falling behind. I am very fortunate also with family, kids, a few toys (not a ton) a good paying job (a lot into stocks, not fabulous mansions) and I wish everyone a happy and fun NEW YEAR!

POST 30Original post

Quotes source post: 4925645

Your hobby (Porsche) and your wife's hobby (horses) have something in common. For either hobby, when you have to pay for service, it is guaranteed that someone is going to get f'ked! The main difference is that at least the horse gets to enjoy it!

POST 31Original post

I do have a hot wife, great family, abundant finances, a few cool rides, etc. BUT, I know it is God's blessings and the only reason I have it. It could be gone tomorrow if He chose to take it. Thankfully, he hasn't. (gotta admit it is fun) But, no matter what our income level is here fellas and ladies, we really need to give back in some way. I'm probably in the minority here in my beliefs, although I wished I weren't, but God allows some of us this kind of wealth so we can bless others. It may be your elderly parents, an orphanage, overseas project, whatever. Share it, whether you consider it a lot or a small amount. If you've been to third world countries, then you know that our poverty here isn't the same. Some places I've been to don't offer government help, food stamps, shelter, even water to the poor. It is a humbling experience. So, give in some way this season...share a little of what you have and do it often. Do it through the church or in some way to glorify our God. What if it's misused?...so what, you did YOUR part. Let others account for what they do. Jesus IS the reason for the season. God bless you all!! I've had a very enjoyable year with my car, thanks to many on rennlist. A smart man learns from his experiences...a genius learns from the experience of others. (oh, and I do have a set of guns as well)

POST 32Original post

I have to plead guilty in being part of the recent "uprising." It was just a way to entertain myself after being away on business overseas for most of this quarter. After spending months in countries where their society value is so drastically different than the US values and in different stages of their growth or maturity as a country. I come back to read posts here and just cannot help myself to feel somewhat cynical. A French philospher once said, you start to understand your own culture only after you have spent time in another country understanding theirs. Only then will you have a basis for comparison. We are all so fortunate to be here in this side of the world. We all could have easily been born in a country of constant civil war and struggle. How things would be so different under those circumstances... Happy New Years and wish everyone that next year will be better than before.

POST 33Original post

What kills me is when we support political cutures so negative and different than our values with a carrot (allowing them to share our wealth, at the expense of our middle and particularly lower middle class) and a stick (i.e. Iraq). I never thought I'd become a protectionist and still don't view myself as one. I just think if we're going to allow other cultures to share in the wealth established by our forefathers and our constitution, we should all play by the same rules. Oh well, I guess Hillary will fix all that

POST 35Original post

I�m just a poor middle income guy who always wanted a Porsche and now I have one so I guess I�m the lucky one. Happy New Year to all, including Hillary.

POST 37Original post

....and with that, I'm gonna take the $3.25 in my pocket, go buy a gallon of gas, and drive my Porsche!
