She worked and put herself through college, STARTING AS A WAITRESS LIKE MOST TEENAGERS, has worked hard as an accountant and now has her own firm, with her own clients. Most of the things you all are saying about David are untrue, IRRELEVANT, and hurtful. I am a member of the family, and I dont care how bitter all you people are with the economy, the people who were working on it and the choices they made, but this slander is awful. Whether it is their fault or not, they worked hard in college and grad school to get where they are and did the best they could.

From the level of his vitriol aimed at Lereah, you’d think that Barry had never heard Mark Twain’s quote of Benjamin Disraeli: “There are three kinds of lies. Lies, damn lies, and statistics.”<BR/><BR/>We’re not defending the research or the spin. Association data is notoriously undependable for almost every industry sector, and it should always be looked at with healthy skepticism, in good times or bad. <BR/>http://www.housingcrisis.com/financial-crisis/grumpy-morning-big-picture/Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046974680377810629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11719208.post-71268946461675102352009-01-13T08:27:00.000-08:002009-01-13T08:27:00.000-08:00Make sure you only charge 495.00 - not 500.00; peo...Make sure you only charge 495.00 - not 500.00; people are not easily tricked these days!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11719208.post-49692981367134738662009-01-13T08:24:00.000-08:002009-01-13T08:24:00.000-08:00How many of those 50 sheeple bought his books and ...How many of those 50 sheeple bought his books and property that subsequently tanked?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11719208.post-24356627173252657882009-01-13T08:20:00.001-08:002009-01-13T08:20:00.001-08:00Looks like he found 50 Pauls to feel sorry for him...Looks like he found 50 Pauls to feel sorry for him and send money.
