Btw - The brittish English is the original English. All the other variants are just clones...

On a serious note concerning your wealth. What did you do to make it or were you born into it? Let's see....was it Oil (Irving) or maybe French Fries (McCain)?

My original posting said:
"If I got one cent everytime I find a spelling error, a grammar error, a missing capital letter at the start of a sentence, punctuation error, and every other error I find at the Forums of RHP, then I would be rich in no time."

So it wouldn't be fair if you get more then me per error.

I was dirt poor left home at 17 and a half years old.

It would have been nice to have born into the Irving or McCain families I suppose.

Then in looking back, I wouldn't be able to say I did it on my own!

Ya come on VR, how'd ya make the fortune you have? Perhaps there was a hint in the "I was dirt poor". Maybe, just maybe it was farming? Started off helping a farmer then saved enough to buy a parcel of land, planted some...well odd looking weeds and just grew from there. Another farm and another and another etc. Now he's a land Baron (not "dirt" poor anymore). Am I close at all VR?

Did not involve farming, but not a bad guess.

I will tell you that land and real estate are very good investments.

Many moons ago I had a cleaning business, which did very well.

Start small and grow is the way to go! 😉

Have you ever watched any of those?

I was thinking of trying one of them out as a hobby, instead of wasting so much free time with the chess. ( You can never have too much money, and a lot of the time it takes money to make money)

Actually didn't this site start out as a hobby?

I got $0.

Is that why you keep adding 😛 to your posts?

Reminds you of the time when you were a cleaner!
