Why...

[HAULN-SS]

heh. I think it's all relative. Is your roommate from around here? I have a friend back home who is married, has a brand new house, and a 2 year old. They're not doing too bad - but when I go home, they jokingly tell their kid "here comes 'rich uncle derek' " or some such thing. I do kind of get aggravated by that. Other people usually give me some kind of crap for owning more than one car, even though 2 of them were bought originally for less than $4,000 for both of them (nevermind the sweat equity in them at this point)
