I'd hate to see what your liver looks like if your piss is potent enough to run that mustang! :rofl:

Seemed to me that the guy that started this thread was innocently asking what people did for a living. I didn't take any offense to that. Apparently there are a lot of sensitive people on here. If you don't want to say, then don't. I don't see the need to get upset about it. If you're so offended by the question, go to another post. Relax. BTW, I'm much closer to the lower end of that poll as i am a union worker.

he didn't ask what people did for a living. He asked how much money they made.

You may be right, you may be wrong. It sparked due to some of the other posts I've seen lately on multiple websites and in magazine letters. Whether it's his motivation or not, I felt it was relevant to this website and hope those with negative attitudes will take it somewhere else. We don't care what you have or what you are building. Share your knowledge, bring it out to an event and tear it up. That's where you'll gain respect and friends.

By the way, I hadn't listened to the Corolla interview BEFORE I made my post.

The first thing the OP did was make an ASSumption. That set the tone for the whole thread.

"It seems to me that there are alot of "wealthy" people on Lat-G." :rolleyes:

I'm still waiting for his explanation of wealth.

I'm a regular blue collar, hourly wage earner just like the vast majority of the members of this site. I'm on-call for 3,300 hours per year beyond the 2,000 hours a year I work (24/7, every other week). I apply my skill set to do side jobs to help offset costs of car parts.

Jealousy will always drive those that are unwilling to work hard and can't be self motivated.

I think this poll brings to light the fact that our hobby brings together people with a common love for cars. It doesn't matter if you work overtime and bust your ass to put together a home built street car or write a check to fill your garage with pro built dream cars. Not sure you can say the same for too many other hobbies. Build it, buy it, drive it, race it or show it....whatever makes you happy!
