Your net worth to the world is usually determined by
what remains after your bad habits are subtracted from your good ones.

Chicago has a new beverage tax (on top of already sky-high sales taxes); millionaires only drink so much Coke. "Buddy, I have a cooler..."— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 30, 2017
Trump's transgender ban baffles me; less than 1% of the military is transgender. Moreover, it likely violates the 14th Amendment.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 30, 2017
