I have a net worth of a little more then 7. I feel really good about 1.8 in ALK. Thanks though, talk to you broker, maybe you can get me a pick. Let me guess you just got 10 shares of AAPL at 180. How cute!

Dude,
That ain’t all that much coin. I am still punching a time clock, ain’t I. But I made every penny, nothing was given to me. Put your head down keep driving. Pretend you don’t live in America, you don’t want to surprise yourself and make my little nest egg look like chump change!

My point is, I wouldn’t be bragging about profits a company makes built solely on the backs of labor.

if oil prices go up any further don’t you think that would be a loss in the next quarter?

Punching the time clock in management. Line pilots don't make enough over a career at AS to make that much even if they're investment geniuses.

You know what’s funny.. I made more then half of that pile while pulling your gear up. See you were so happy being a Captain, you didn’t have to do anything. I had to figure out how to survive, my pay sucked. I had bills to pay two kids and a wife. Well you know what, fear of poverty really paid off for me, even as you gregariously bragged to me about your 185k a year. Life is funny that way my friend, you probably would have had a hard time finding enough scratch to pay my taxes the last three years.

Undoubtedly you are financially brilliant. Probably just as financially brilliant as other pilots who have overweighted their retirement with company stock. Like those TWA pilots, and Pan Am, and Branuff and Continental. Oh yes, clearly too bright to need to follow common sense.

Fortunate yes, lucky probably, driven for sure. Brilliant no way. Following only the road everyone else was on would have left me with 750k to a mil right now.
