That's childs play :)

U have no idea wat I am even doing! In some situations 13 pages would b undeniably hard for most CPAs! 13 Pages is just wat i have so far it'll probably be around 20 when I am actually done! Are u an accountant Zgubiony? =D If you are i'd love to audit some of your work!

Quality is important, counting pages is childish.

You're a mindless cretin and an oxygen thief. You scorn Poland and the Polish because you wish you had one iota of one percent of some Polishness about you.

Why is it so important to deal with rude rich polish people and not to deal with rude poor polish people?You lack the usual western guts when dealing with the rich ones?

No my GFs family who is poor isnt rude. They r strange but not rude! My GF's family isn't that arrogant. Their extreme "Polish Pride" can be annoying sometimes but it's much better than "I have lots of $ so when u give me a present it doesn't mean anything unless it costs alot". That's very very rude in my opinion!

Guts? I am a very outspoken person I don't know where u get the idea I lack courage...........................

The Polish race have never been very industrious and hard working

It seems like most people in the UK agree that Polish people work quite hard, so... I guess your post is wrong. Also, in previous posts, haven't you mention that your wife is Polish?

The Fiance's parents r the most rude people I have ever heard

I feel you.

These breeds must be so called 'nuworysze' (new-moneys). I had an unpleasance to work for such people. Urghh! I quit very quick but stayed in touch with peeps from the work. After years, what they were doing in the begining and what I witnessed, was really NOTHING comparing to how rude they became over the years.

W dupach im się poprzewracało.

In our Christian society, the Anglo Saxon races believe that it is our own hard work and endevours that will lead to success

********. You obviously have only a vague idea about some Christian faiths in Western Europe. You also are stupid enough to realize that the only difference between the Anglican Church's doctrine and that of Rome is who's the boss of the Church here on Earth.

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.

And yet the Anglon-Saxon races shoved the roman Catholic church because it stopped them from getting rich?

Wealthy Polish people are not very nice folk! I know lots of wealthy Poles in Warsaw who are arrogant pricks and it really takes a lot sometimes for me to 'hold my tongue' and not say something really stupid just to wind them up. A guy I was speaking to at a party repremanded me for using the friendly 'ty', the little sh1t was about 10 years younger than me! I think it's the 'new money' syndrome. 10-20 years ago they were picking their noses selling bucks on street corners and wearing shell suits and now they are zooming about in expensive cars and living in tasteless mansions that look like lego houses with columns outside the front door (always a bad sign). I suspect if the authorities scratched ever so slightly below the surface 98% of these guys would be behind bars anyway.

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.

WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM BUDDY?? Seriously what have Poles ever done to anyone? What are you Russian? I think you're the jealous one because you have to live in a corrupted sh*thole of a country. Why are you posting on POLISH forums if you hate Poles so much?

I think you hate how much you love us.

This is all an old-new money thing. I know some old money folks in the UK and they are seriously some of the funniest, most eccentric, generous people I know. They will quite happily sit and have a drink with a lord or a yob and they certainly do not flaunt their wealth. When Billy Connolly was criticised for mixing with the upper crust in Britain his response was that they are as nuts and funny as anyone he knows.

In Poland there is no old money (unless anyone knows otherwise?) All of it is very new money which, as anywhere, is simply vulgar.

Billy Connolly still clings to his roots, I read his biography only a few months ago. I also like his stuff on Youtube. Billy Connolly just wanted to extend his contact base, sth that many stars do. He was in with Parkinson for a while, bringing out his devilish nature. Connolly also hates rudeness and apologises when he himself comes across that way.

ive met these people too. a laughable bunch and not hard to put in their place.

I suspect if the authorities scratched ever so slightly below the surface 98% of these guys would be behind bars anyway.

or up to their eyeballs in debt

on the other hand, i know some very comfortably off people in the tri city but there is a difference. these people have stayed in the tri city and largely made tmoney here through their own endevours, capabilities and hard work. they havent been drawn to the bright lights and promise of wealth in warszawa.

they mix with a broad cross section of society and are as happy mixing with impovorished art students as they are with wealthy western busness men. they tend to be highly cultured, well educated, well travelled and speak a high level of english. i enjoy spending time with most of these people and am lucky to count them as my friends.

HA the debt thing is true and really funny! My family that is the poorest appears to be the wealthiest. My grandpa who owns his entire block in orange county shops at thrift stores and reuses paper plates! He is insane because he acts like that but in reality he is worth over 30 mil and he is in 0 debt. Do u know who Ross Perot is? He is a good friend of my grandpa and he is worth billions yet he looks like an old poor man lol. He is insane as well it's y my grandpa gets along so good with him!

I wealthiest family I know well is worth over 110 mil. Yet... there son who is a good friend of mine shops at walmart for his clothing and drives a 1990 Honda civic! It's insane I suppose it's for the best though because he would get kidnapped by some organization in a minute if they knew the kind of randsom they could get from him!

He's not insane, hes a product of the depression. Most of our elders are this way.

Why is it you always talk about money? ...oh that's right, you're in LA....the American Plastic land :)

U moron I said some1 I actually knew! I met one Rockefeller 1 time when I was 12! This guy I grew up around! That's y i said a family I KNOW! NOt some idiot I met once! I met David Rockefeller JR once! That was it! He is a very nice guy to despite wat all of the conspiracy theorists say! He's not some freakin "zionist"

I met one Rockefeller 1 time when I was 12!

and based on that brief meeting you formed the following opinoin?

Ive met a few of the supposed "illuminati" including David Rockefeller and I can assure u they aren't how u think they are!

How can we accept an assurance based on an experience of the 12 year old boy after a brief meeting he has with someone? Your mind seems to be stuck around the age of 10 now, so at the age of 12 you couldn't have been possibly more mature than a toddler.

I'm sure he is.
Is he also your role model?
OP RockyMason 19 | 250

HAHAHAHAHA He works too much! I could never work like he does! In terms of social influence he should serve as a role model for all! He is brilliant! I wonder if the Rockefellers r richer than pooland? =)

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?

NOT ALL, but MOST of them...
there are many nice people in Poland not rude, very polite... but 1 between 1000

for information:
IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT RUDE PEOPLE IN POLAND, TRY TO GET IN TO OFFICIAL OFFICE/GOVERNMENT OFFICE...(you will never believe what you will see)

Poland will change.. but in my opinion, still need 2 generations...

regard,

Hmmm, I think this is a case of money vs. philosophy. Sort of what many economists call new wealth. Point is, Money plays a factor in how it comes. Was it hard worked for? Inheritted? Illegally made? Chances are if it wasn't rightfully made then the philosophical aspect of that person falls and arrogance comes about. But if that wealth exists for good reasons it probably came from good will, intelligence, morals, ethics, life philosophy. Yes Poland is a country that's "entering" the wealth phase. So time is also a factor that deals with one's philosophy upon wealth. It's sort of like the two are sisters, one can't live without the other. It's not just in application to Poland, but rather in any other global economy. As far as them not being materially rich and working dreadful work, then tehy are probablt just fresh on wealth, rich is a different concept. ^_^

unfortunately common. there is no beast more boring and arrogant than the nuveau riche in Poland, although it stands to reason that it is the same in Russia, Ukraine, Romania, etc..the only weapon is to ignore them, they will eventually go away.
