1) I bought a new vehicle in 1995, drove it for 4 years, totaled it in a wreck, at a loss of only $1000 by the time the dust had settled with the insurance company.
2) I have never borrowed money, for anything.
3) I am a virgin.
4) I have been banned on this forum and came back under a different user name and had to use a different email address.

#2 has to be the lie.

I don't care what you were thinking when writing #4, but all I know is that everybody must have borrowed some money at some point in their lives.

I think #3 has to be the lie. If it WERE true, you wouldn't admit it on an open forum unless you are 14 or younger, and even then I'm not sure. :smile:

Number 2 has to be a lie. Truly when you are broke, you need to borrow money from someone you know during the time you needed it.

I completley disagree w/ your premise. For one thing not all people are broke at some point in their life. Have you ever heard of rich people?

Yes I have heard of rich people. Let me ask you. Is Averagesupernova rich? Broke does not necessarily mean a person is poor. I've always thought that broke is temporary and poor is more of a permanent status.
