I think that is a fair assessment of well off.

You're just itching to let people know how much money you make, aren't you? I'd accuse you of being crass, but I think you would just take it as a compliment.

Are you talking to me? Saying that I'm itching to let people know what I make? If so, screw you. I spend this whole thread being told by a couple dudes how dumb I am for being satisfied with what I make while they pontificate on vague categories. Then some prick decides I'm the one trying to elevate himself. If people want to know what I make they can find it online. Lawyer's salaries are lockstep at big firms and I'm at a big firm. If, otoh, you are talking to someone else, disregard this post.

BTW, on the subject of me being crass...bite me. How's that for crass?

You take pot shots at people and then call them humorless for not rolling with it? Not sure why you take shots at me...do I know you? did I make out with your wife before you were married?
