No, it needs a couple of your credit card account numbers along with cvv and account expiration dates. Try to be as complete as possible for maximum effect.

Huh uh, according to you that was your drolly humorous answer.
You said: Just to save some time, youre not in it. People in the top 1% do not spend their valuable time doing this (or reading Forbes, for that matter).
You addressed your comment to FR readers at large. How do you know none are in the 1% group?
How do you know how one percenters spend their time and what they read?
You said those things boldly. If your words cant endure scrutiny then whats your point?

I’m doing fine.
I like my house, I like my car, I have plenty of everything I need.
Why do I need to worry about the rest of it?

Why are you picking a fight with a long-time FReeper over such a mundane thing as a wry remark in a finance topic involving very few people?
Aren't their meatier opinions on this site worth arguing over?

SQRT(-1) is j in electrical engineering because i means something else entirely. It means the same thing in physics, but physicists manage to handle the ambiguity.

Well I could beg off on a $money is closer to math than engineering argument. But I wont.
You are absolutely right. The Square Root of Minus 1 is in universal use in the engineering work, at least electrical engineering.
But I should be forgiven since in my third grade complex algebra class we always used i. Its hard to break old habits. 😎😎😎😎

My educational and professional experience spans physics, mathematics and engineering. Physics and Maths use "i" for "imaginary", EE uses "j" to avoid confusion with "i" for current. At least, I think that's why they (we?) use "j". As you note, SQRT(-1) cannot be avoided in EM field theory, or control theory, or a host of other things.
So there's no problem with your complex algebra class or your use of the terminology learnt therein. You're just speaking mathematician-ese.

I see net worth as the total worth of everything that you own that has monetary value (equity in your home being one example) minus all monies that you owe to others (the balance owed on your mortgage for example).

Just enter a whole bunch of numbers.

*****************************************
Yes but only if you also give Google your paternal grandmothers first name, the first name of your childhood best friend and the color of your first car.
Enjoy...and ALWAYS remember, Google is your friend. ;-)

Thanks PJT. Some people get their jollies that way. I’ve seen someone pick a similar fight over someone using the commonplace phrase “I’ll bet...”, and trolls like that are just not worth the time.

He wasnt wry at all. He declared false witness as truth with bold authority. Its destructive. You tolerate that but I dont.
Ask yourself a few questions.

I'll ask myself why I bothered. You seem to be obsessive about the small things.
You've only been signed up for a year, so you don't seem to have picked up the "vibe" of this place, or you wouldn't be so uptight about it.
