I drive a firetruck. I am a Gubment employee so my salary is no secret. Anyone has access to that info. Do I have a lot of money? Obviously, no.

Am I wealthy? Hells yeah! I have a great wife that supports my hobby, a large heated shop, a growing list of basic tools, and a few friends who actually know what they are doing to help me out (some of them even think I know what I'm doing...)

Who here has laid on a cold wet driveway in the middle of the night replacing a header cooked starter so you could be at work in a few hours? Who has run tires so bad you could see the air in them for a month until you could afford somebody elses take-offs?
I won't ever be a millionaire, but I am VERY fortunate, and VERY wealthy in the currency that matters to me.
