How about just being human and respecting people for who they are, not how much money they make? Income doesn't make a person, but if they feel justified by it, then they are shallow and I personally will avoid them.
I am in the middle and get my bills paid on time. I have friends on both ends of the spectrum and in between. We all have one thing in common, we have the same s**t in common and money doesn't matter.
See if your savings account downs a cold one with you and shoots the s**t with you. Maybe shows up at your wedding, birthday or kid's birthday. Money can not replace friends, family or good memories.
First off is a RUB and what does income level have to do with riding?
I make over 200K per year, but do all the years in college somehow negate my passion for riding? Why would I be labeled as lesser asset in the riding community? Can one of the "real" riders on this forum explain this to me!
sorry, but you are a rub. it's the rules. next slide please

i haven't had a job in almost three years..my wife makes just enough to pay the bills..i ride an electraglide, it is my primary transportation when its not rain/snowing. and my wife owns a sportster that she brags about but has never actually ridden.. i have known a lot of true bikers, non of them have ever made 6 figures.. what does that make me??
( im actually not a loser, i quit my job to stay home and raise my kids, my wife has a degree and makes more money then i did 70 hours a week driving a truck. not to mention i was gone 7 days at a time and my kids didnt know me)

I know a 55 yr old guy that's up for adoption... Can I call you dad?
I sometimes allow my butler to ride the bike to the "Soap and Shine" , I pay him an amount that puts him in the biker bracket, as he is in indentured servitude to me I therefore claim the title "biker", see my lawyers if you have any issues, "Shisters, Fuchem & Partners".
