Personally, I think that most people who were making six figures a year would want to live in a better location. Have you ever been to Bethug's area and then to Laguna Beach? Big difference. Difference in schools, difference in crime rates, difference in community.
Put another way - Bethug claims that he has several hundred thousand in the bank. Given the current interest rate - wouldn't he be better served to put that money to better use? The Wall Street Journal Prime rate is 4 percent - at almost historical lows.
Place yourself in his shoes. If YOU were making six figures a year, and KNEW you could continue to do so (remember - Bethug is attributing his wins to a system, not to Dame Fortune), are you honestly going to tell me that you wouldn't purchase a nicer home in a nicer area? Bethug claims to be staying true to himself - and props for that - so I guess perhaps he and I have disparate backgrounds.
Am I envious (I believe that's the word - not jealous)? Certainly. Who wouldn't want to make over $100,000 per year clicking on a mouse in front of a computer? Am I "cutting him up" because of it? Certainly not. But nor am I going to shy away from questions that pop up in my mind - and may be present in others as well.
Well said.
