Ford is renting my truck to me...I have to give it back in Sept 2003...unless I decide I have to keep it...then they will buy it for me, then I have to pay them back.
I pay for everything myself, always have, since I was 16.

When a stranger asks, "How much did you pay for that?", I always answer, "I didn't pay for it - my girlfriend gave it to me."
They invariably respond by telling me how cool that is and how lucky I am. Then I go on to tell them, "Yeah, but it really pissed off my wife!"
I slip out in the silence that follows.
48 years old; president of CALIFORNIA Equity & Loan, a specialty mortgage banker; spend most of my time as a director of our biggest client, California Pools, a fifty year old pool builder.
Who really pays for the truck? Only my accountant knows!

By the way, before anybody gets too envious of the dot.commers (now dot.gonners): A portion of my retirement account was invested in BUY.COM. I got in at $27 and it now stand at 31 cents a share.
I will have to retire two years later and my boat will have to be 15 foot shorter!
I know I'm not alone in this boat...
