    How would you know that?

    Thanks but this is where I started to vomit. Appreciate the *advice* but when I need a 12 step program I'll be in touch.

    Enjoy that climb man. I've talked a lot of people in my day if you think what I said is hoopla and you can magically read something online that's accurate to YOUR scenario, you have a uphill battle. Best of luck.

      Nope, that's not what I said. I asked if anyone has a source for some data; I didn't ask you for a cheesy lecture on life.

        I realize that, but I'm also telling you it won't magically do anything for you. I'm not saying you shouldn't find "some" metrics though. I'm saying, you're gonna find out yours will most likely be different anyway. And it's not cheesy, you may wish to rethink that and expand your horizons. It's simple man, the millionaires I've met don't think much about the crap "information" on the Internet. I have success in other areas, and I know first hand in those areas, "information" on the Internet is garbage. It's written by clueless people for clueless people. Don't get me wrong, it's nice to read and know, but at the end of the day, climbing to the top is a solo journey. May not wanna start by dissing someone with some experience in that arena who's trying to help.

          I don't think you are going to be able to google this as it is very different between companies, and also very private information. Your best bet would probably be to use a heuristic approach and produce upper and lower estimates.

            Again, you can have no idea what it'll do for me. I didn't say why I wanted them. Perhaps it was just curiosity or my kids have a project or I have invented the next Farcebook. You have no idea.

            Oh yes it was: cheesy and lecturing and vomitus and I didn't ask you for advice. If I wanted life coaching I would have asked for it. I didn't, so why did you feel the need to offer it? Arrogance, perhaps?

            LOL. That was hilarious. I have no idea who or what you think you are but it is of little or no consequence to me and, as far as "dissing" you goes, home boy, take it that you have been mightily dissed.

                You just like to argue and get pissy over nothing. I'm not wasting my time talking to a child (that's you) like this. Have a nice day and good luck with whatever you're doing.

                        No, I just don't want to be lectured on life by someone who does not know me. It's like being accosted in the street by an evangelist. It's arrogant and pompous and never ends well.

                        Thanks. Mind if I give you some life tips? For instance, pissing someone off because you think you know better than everyone else. Don't do it.

                            Think about it this way. I asked if anyone knew where I could possibly find some info. There are 3 possible answers to this question: No: which means you won't answer anyway; Yes: which means you give me a link to some information that might be helpful or Jokey: you take the piss out of my question (very acceptable). What you don't do is answer the question with a lecture on how to live life. Why would you expect anyone to react with anything less than disdain if you are arrogant enough to think you know the person well enough to a) believe they need the lecture or b) to have the gall to deliver it. The sensitivity appears to be all you not seeing that your behavior is arrogant, pompous and unwanted. But, since you are like that, I suspect you won't change. So, have a nice day.

                              I'm not reading this. I've lost interest. You can have the last word in all the replies you want after this if it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy. See ya.
