Of course the money thing entered into it - I'm a banker, so I know a little more about money and what people do with it versus your limited knowledge - if it were not a money thing, we all would have real Cobra's if there were a suffient number to go around. Wake Up!

As for the comment about making enemies around here - I'm bulletproof.

How bulletproof are you? You may understand money, but may not know what it takes to generate it.

I'm a doctor, make money $40-50 at a time. You have to see alot of patients to make alot of money, buy a cobra. Do the numbers.

My experience with bankers is that although they do understand many of the state and federal regualtions that control the loaning of money, transfer of money, etc., I think they really have no concept of what it takes to run a business, have employees, follow other government regulations. Unless you run your own businees, with employees, I don't know if you could really ever understand business. You won't learn it in school.

Banks make way too much money on interest, and all the other fees associated with loans, and business accounts, being backed by the government.
