    I'm a 1%'er now. I get 1% of my paycheck, my wife gets the remaining 99%.

    You can't make missus jokes yet. You're still in the first year - this year is out of bounds to you for wife jokes.

    I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.

      Just wait until you've been married a few years. Then you'll be lucky if you even get 0.5%. :)

            eh I cut him some slack on this one, she was in fiancé status already, so its as good as the wife part when it comes to the money :)

            Treat stressful situations like a dog, if you can't eat it, play with it or screw it, then just piss on it and walk away. Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow.

                Hardly. Fiancé status still has training wheels. Now he's moved to the Ferrari of wage loss.

                  I'm not the 1% and I'm also not convinced more free stuff (entitlements?) are going to make my life any better. I'm content, and I'm also tired of political blabbering implying that I am on their side just because I'm not in the 1%.

                        Until her "slack" was "cut" and she became a fiancée.
