Alright, alright, you caught me.

About 75% of what I said really is true- I did go to a private school focusing on economics, I really wasn't allowed to hang out with anyone outside of my school/my dad's business partners, and I really was raised to focus on the bottom line. I was taken to the NYSE as a child and told that I'd be there one day. My school really did have only classes that could be useful in the business world. I actually am an economics student. All of this is actually true.

But people seemed so shocked when I mentioned my upbringing, it was kind of funny. Obviously you've never run into someone with my upbringing before, and it was kind of funny. I was also really bored. You all thought I was a "brainwashed corporate drone," so I played it up.

I'm really not that far out of the loop, I swear.

And I'm sorry. I probably took it too far.

(also, Captcha is "insurance nasty"- kinda ironic, there)

But what about your first statement? It sounds like you really believe that. Or was it all a ruse the whole time?

But, whoa. Amazing job, darlin. We all were horrified for a moment there.

Heh, thanks, I tried.

And yes, my first statement actually was serious. It was the reaction to that really surprised me.

Has this discussion somewhat changed your mind? A little? Because, trust me, money should be used as a tool, but people let it consume who they are.

A bit, maybe. But it is hard to reverse twenty years of programming in a night (and I'm also kind of falling asleep at the keyboard, so I'm going to sleep after this). And while I'm actually nowhere near as extreme as I made myself out to be here, the core of it really is (was? I don't even know anymore, you guys screwed with my head as much as I screwed with yours) pretty much the same.

It's definitely given me something to think about.

Nah, you were good, man. Not gonna lie, you had us going pretty good. Yeah, this was actually a pretty fun way to kill a couple of hours (my father's a lawyer--I grew up thinking that arguing was some kind of sport that I just never win). You played it up good--ridiculous, but with just that hint that earnest confusion. I bit. We all bit. Well played, anon. Well played.
