Best answer!

I think you need to find another 'rich family' to house keep. I feel very fortunate that I worked for a business that was owned by a very wealthy family, they were more than generous with me, I received many bonuses and even bought me a corvette-- I still have the car. so, not all wealthy people are like what you describe.

I believe that true wealth is not in bling-bling and fancy homes with 12 bedrooms to clean, these people are many times over extended and in fact, all their money is tied up in material things to maintain their 'showboat status'- believe me, in my business I deal with these people all the time! I see people here that want to buy what I sell and file for financing, they show they are bringing in enormous amounts of money, yet they get turned down! for being over extended.. These are your $50.00 for 12 rooms rich people, not the real ones. Never let material wealth dictate net worth..

Oh, BTW: my ex boss (retired) was and is a republican.. LOL

You missed the 'pun'-- pay attention! LOL I said he was a wealthy republican that shares his wealth! Certainly you aren't going to try and convince me that there are no wealthy democrats??? LOL..

The going rate is $20.00 per hour in Canada, minimum. My cousins in Hong Kong and Dubai pay a lot more than that.

That's how they have become rich. They have lot of money, but they may not be happy. You are not as rich as they are. But you are happy. You are better off than they in terms of happiness.
