Life / How to deal with rude rich Polish people? [65]

This is very true of all rich Polish people. Most Poles are poor but they will always have the time to stick a knife in your back! The Polish race have never been very industrious and hard working and instead have always relied on the support of others. In our Christian society, the Anglo Saxon races believe that it is our own hard work and endevours that will lead to success whereas, in Poland, the Roman Catholics are made to believe that it does not matter what you do or say in life and nothing is really important as God will provide for you. The Poles are Europe's most scrounging race, jealous of wealth and success, they are always the first to embrace it when it comes their way

=D HAHAHAHA That is similar to wat my GF said! =D

ROCKY>>>>> GET A JOB

I had a job last summer I'll prolly get another one! I interned with a Healthcare CEO last summer and while I was in high school! I actually hated it I was basically his glorified secretary biotch! Boredom isn't fun! Hey if it makes u feel better I had a job a while back! I even had one in high school. I didn't work more than 12 hrs a week but it was a legit job so screw off! Working is really easy I don't know y people act like it's something so honorable! Working SOME STUPID LOW LEVEL JOB is WAY easier than my 13 page accounting project I am doing! THAT IS FOR SURE!(IT'S ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT WHEN UR USB DRIVE FRIES AND U HAVE TO TYPE IT ALL OVER AGAIN ='(((()

Life / How to deal with rude rich Polish people? [65]

hey, didn't you say the same damn thing about your gf's peeps not so long ago?

Different situation. WAYYY Different my dad has been a dick to my GF's parents but h e wasn't half this rude! This is a level of rudeness I have never even seen!

You might be surprised sometimes.

I knew a guy in Yonkers, NY. He looked as if he couldn't afford to fill the tank of his 20 year old chevy pickup with more than $5 worth of gas.

Well, he owned the gas station, and a few more in the area. In fact he owned the area - about 20 city blocks of houses and businesses. I don't remember how many supermarkets and real estate around the US he owned.

He worked 16 hours a day, 7 days a week, as a plumber, driver, painter and all kinds of funny jobs like that.

WTF ur not rich when u work for wat u get paid! Rich is different! LOL U obviously don't know wat rich is. These people aren't like this guy they act rich but i don't think they are!

Life / How to deal with rude rich Polish people? [65]

Recently my GF's brothers fiance's parents and her parents have been planning for the wedding. The Fiance's parents r the most rude people I have ever heard of in my entire life and I have known some very rude and demeaning people!!! My GF's mom bought them several gifts to be nice and all they had to say was "how much do these cost they look cheap?". The fiance's mom took a look at the dress her mother bought and said "this looks cheap wat was this 300 dollars?". My GFs parents r pretty poor. Her mother works full time and makes around 12 dollars an hour.

Allegedly these people have $..... although i doubt they have that much since the father still works a million hours a week despite being very old! They don't even have very many expensive nice things. NO WHERE NEAR WAT SOME PEOPLE IN MY FAMILY HAVE!

My GF was really sad about this and told me that polish people who have $ r very very stuckup. She said that the vast majority of rich polish people are much more arrogant than their rich american peers. Is this true?

I don't understand how these people consider themselves rich! From wat I have heard it wouldn't surprise me to find out my father makes more in a month than they do in a year yet my father would never insult some1 who gave him a gift! He would be greatful if some1 as poor as my GF's mom gave him something from a walmart or something! How would u react to this situation? I am thinking that when I marry my GF and her brothers wifes parents come to the dinner afterward I am going to have some of my family members put them in their place! Would this be a bad idea?

I wonder how they would react to my grandpa saying "now which parties candidate did u have dinner with last election?" =) or "how many houses did u buy when the price went down?"

They kept rubbing in my GF's mothers face that they had a nice big house they just bought! ABSOLUTELY SICKENING I MAY SEEM LIKE I AM ARROGANT ON THE NET BUT EVEN I KNOW BETTER THAN THAT! How the hell immature are these people what culture allows this?

If u want a club with big benefits join the Bohemian Club. It's almost impossible to get into though. My dad has been trying for YEARS. Even though he is a lobbyist they still don't think he is worthy. It is based out of SF and if any society is plotting a NWO it is the Bohemian Club. U need to b a man of power with $ and the ability to keep secrets if u want in on the Bohemian club.

Well so you are telling me u wouldn't favor a lodge brother over a disgruntled spiteful catholic? Come on lets be realistic here! Every1 discriminates and every1 favors some over others. It's just the way of the world. U would much rather be around a lodge brother than some insane catholic telling you that you are a satan worshipper! I have seen some brothers do some stupid things yet none of them have been kicked out. I am in Cali though maybe you are more orthodox over in Utah.

WTF!!! I am primative? say wat u want but in all likelihood I am your better zDarius.

It doesn't look all that bad. Sure, it doesn't seem she considers you a full primate, but her seeing you as a primative is a good sign. I'd consider you primative too.

you're going to marry beneath yourself :)

=D HA actually i get alot of crap from my parents for havin a GF that isn't from a well off family. I don't care though I love her!

Oh I am not atheist. I am a Deist!

Thread attached on merging:
Are Polish people racist against non-whites?

My GF recently came to me in tears. Allegedly she had been avoiding telling her mom that my mom was japanese. I find this rather disturbing considering I have been with her for over a year. Her parents think that asians r violent and primative! What is up with this? How can they throw us all into the same boat! Japan has a much better life quality and economy than poland!

I am really suprised her parents never noticed. I am not totally chinky but I do have darker hair. I guess I kind of look hispanic or italian but if u look closely i most certainly look asian. How can polish people be so racist? My relations with her parents just went from decent to a nightmare in just a few hours! I cannot believe they can call my mother primative! My mom is the head of a nurses union with a Ba degree and experience managing budgets in the 10s of millions. My GFs mom cleans toilets for a living! WTF is wrong with these people?

Life / What do Polish people think of burning the national flags? [58]

U don't know how often it even brings results because all u c are the results! Most of the time it doesn't work. To get a bill passed it is gonna take 10s of millions and 100s of lobbyists to schmooze for freaking years! U can sway a vote pretty easily but to make a huge difference it takes alot! Gettin yourself arrested to protest a law can be much more effective. Say wat u want about lobbying but u don't know anything. My dad has lobbyied for probably the past 7 years and it isn't as influential as u think especially in recent years.

Flag burning can make a difference if it is illegal and u getting arrested gets u alot of publicity swaying public support ur way! It is much much cheaper than lobbying and if u have media support it's much more effective. Politicians aren't as loyal to lobbyists as u think. U give em 100k for their campaign and the other side of your issues gives them 120k they will vote for the other side! U DON'T GET UR $ BACK!!!

EDIT* takes a long time unless ur an investment banker like the rothschilds or rockefellers with pockets deeper than the pacific ocean. I just called my dad and he said some lobbys never make progress like the NAMBLA child molesters lobby! YEP THEY HAVE ONE!

Life / What do Polish people think of burning the national flags? [58]

If flag burning is a symbolic gesture behind a deep seated sense of misjustice or a grievance against the government/state etc, why not actually do something about it, like lobby, or petition or meet with a politician - oh, that's right, that would actually involve the mind rather than a lighter and some fuel.

Oh no u didn't! Shut the hell up u have no idea wat u are talking about! U think it's just that easy? U just pick up the phone and call ur local governor? HAHAHAHAHA Have u ever lobbyied before? I don't think so because u wouldn't be talking like that if u had! MY DAD LOBBYS! It is a tedious process even when u have a few hundred grand to throw out for some bozo's campaign! If they don't know you or your fam and u don't know their best friend or their spouse they are hard as hell to get to! If u had a mil or something to throw out u could do it!

Your basic person can't lobby! They don't have the funds or the social connections! U need at least 300k cash ready to throw into some sleezeball's pocket at the blink of an eye! U need friends in high places and persistance! It is really difficult!

Life / What do Polish people think of burning the national flags? [58]

technically, there is no punishment for it. However, the CIA will probably think you're a terrorist and will blacklist you and treat you to a vacation in a resort called Guantanamo Bay.

That is not true! U can still get away with it. U might get shot by a disgruntled Iraqi veteran monkey though! I made a blog disrespecting the military on yahoo and was booted off. I received several death threats just for saying the military doesn't deserve any more respect than other occupations Mc Donald's employees included LOL.

Study / anyone with CELTA? [73]

Amen to that! When my dad used to hire law enforcement officers he turned down people for probation jobs that had PHDs! The job market isn't wat it used to b for college graduates that is for sure. The starting salary in the US is pretty low for most majors. Under 35k. Take into consideration that some students come out with loans in excess of 30k and even sometimes in excess of 50k then u realize that there r tons of poor people with degrees.

To be a store manager at a department store they even usually only hire people with Ba degrees. Store managers do make alot more than most other new college grads can expect though. I know a manager at a Kmart that made 120k last year.

USA, Canada / advice on where to live in Canada [64]

Dude don't even begin to talk to me about $ add my family tree together it would be over 100 mil. $ in my family is easy to come by but most of the richest people in my family r miserable. My dad's best year lobbying he made 700k in bonuses. Any1 has the potential to make tons of $! If i really wanted job security and $ i would just go work for my uncle and get an MBA. He makes over 900k a year and would give me a job of at least 200k starting(he has already offered one to me assuming i get an mba). Or i could work for my grandpa who is best buddies with ross perot and dick cheney. $ isnt that kool. Electricians don't really make that much $ though I just posted the links off of a credible website.

No , it is true.

It's possible that he got the loan but it is a terrible move on the part of the lending institution. NO he won't be able to retire lol. If u get something on credit ur paying the payment on the loan plus interest which would b at least 400 buxx for a porche. The IRS won't throw u in jail unless u lie on ur tax forms. Writing off a luxury car as a work vehicle would be fraud. U cannot claim ignorance with the IRS so ur pretty much screwed.

They don't throw u in jail unless u commit a large scale fraud like running a fake charity and donating $ into it then writing it off as a tax reduction. Something like writing off a car worth less than like 40k would just cause them to destroy ur credit history with interest on the $ u should have owed them. The american IRS is absolutely ruthless. They audit every1 who makes more than 30k a year at some point. U aren't lying ur simply misinformed in order to be lying u have to know u are telling a falsehood.

No where does it say a sports car counts as a tax writeoff! I am fully aware the roads aren't paved with gold. I want a link to somewhere where it says a sports car counts as a tax writeoff! Electricians don't usually make 80-100k ur exaggerating.

U CAN'T WRITE OFF SPORTS CARS! U CAN BUT LOOK FORWARD TO A KNOCK ON THE DOOR FROM THE IRS IN THE USA!!

Oh here come the ad hominems. =) And yes I have seen mexican'ts here do all kinds of things u would never expect! There r latino contractors in LA that get agreements worth 10s of millions of dollars.

Well I do not agree.

LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES Well I am not sure about everything else but a 550k home on a 67k salary is an absolute lie or one of the biggest mistakes every made by a lending organization. The payment on that mortgage is 3700 a month with the amounts u gave. His salary at best would be 5200 a month. So that means only 1500 left - porshe payment of at least 400 buxx insurance 60 gas 200= 840 left for other expenses. U would never ever be able to retire with the numbers u gave. That is paycheck to paycheck living at its finest.

zoogle didn't write anything about tax fraud but about legit business expenses allowed by both IRS and Revenue Canada. Every item he listed qualifies for tax reduction in Canada, and it would in the US.

Where does it say that?

It's called common sense! Sports cars aren't work vehicles so u can't write them off. Yah and my dad writes off his Bentley Continental because he uses it to go talk with assemblymen (which is his job). So yes or no do u use an accountant? U can't pull off tax fraud either man. U pull it off for now but once the IRS gets to u u are screwed. Fortune 500 CFOs have tried to outsmart the IRS and have been caught. What makes u think u can outsmart hundreds of CPAs?

There's more but I'm sure you get the idea. I'd really like to hear your ideas how you could export my job for $0.50 an hour too.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA i am not so sure who controls internal revenue in canada but in the USA they would slap u with a fat audit. After that they would discover u were committing tax fraud. Later after dragging u into court they would slap on a 25% interest rate and if u didn't pay up they would confiscate ur assets and liquidate them. Ur a moron! Using your house as a place of business? HAHAHAHAHA a nissan skyline as well as gas and insurance? I hope a smart accountant did ur writeoffs for u! If not then i suspect some canadian revenue agency will liquidate ur assets sometime in the next 5 years.

It takes them a while to discover ur fraudulent acitivities but when they do u are screwed! So did u do the writoffs yourself or was that an accountant? If it was u i suggest u go see an accountant asap!j OH MAH GOD U WROTE OFF A NISSAN SKYLINE? THAT MOST CERTAINLY WASN'T DONE BY AN ACCOUNTANT! UR A HALF WIT! A SPORTSCAR AS A TAX WRITOFF? hahahahaahah

I was speaking about people that I actually know

Thats very out of the ordinary for a lawyer to make that much just stamping papers. Most lawyers are paid by how good they are which is directly related to how many cases they win. The more u work the the more cases u usually win. My dad knows dozens of lawyers in diverse big firms. Everything from real estate law to corporate law and criminal law. All of the high earning ones work 60 hour weeks and don't really do all that well financially until they make partner.(If they can make partner). Small firm lawyers don't make that much 100k is a ton of money for a lawyer at a small firm he is in the top 10%.

If u are looking into a laywer mali don't expect to work any less than 50 hours a week especially when u are first starting. Okay I guess lawyers earn less in canada than in cali. That is a very low salary especially when u consider that cost of law school.

canadianlawyermag.com/images/stories/pdfs/lawFirmResults.pdf

This is a good article note the non billable hours expected of associates. It looks like canadian lawyers do work just as much as american lawyers. If u add the desired 500 non billable hours + the expected hours some of those good law firms are expecting over 50 hours a week with few vacations.

Does your mom teach at a univ or high school? Some teachers earn more than lawyers but they r really restricted. I don't think there are any teachers earning over 150k a year. Professors at a med school or researchers maybe but that is a different field all together. Teaching is a very easy profession when compared to law. Law is cut throat lol. How old is the real estate lawyer u know? I bet he's older and established. It is hard to get established though.

I am probably gonna end up in accounting although I am not sure yet. I will have to work alot at first but I love numbers and $. Accountants also are in high demand because a cpa is so versatile. I am not sure how crazy I am about working really long hours in investment or fund managing but if I was gonna go into something just for the money i would get a cpa then work for a big 4 accountancy firm after that i'd apply for a job with an investment bank. Investment bankers salaries make every1 elses look like crumbs next to a wedding cake. They work up to 120 hours a week though.... most IBs burn out before they are 35. They can easily afford it though.
