Westy , $12.50 X 20000 hours a year is about $25,000 a year , far from that $50,000 = $60,000 , that some guys who are not keeping up on their new bow payments want !
At least you'll be here in the USA again !

Confession time !
I'm glad that some here seem to think that they need so much , as it's really the important things in life that count that carry no price tag !
I just keep telling myself that wealthy folks aren't all that happy , otherwise I'd never be able to go to work !

I used too many zeros in this statement ( $12.50 X 20000 ) , that equals $250,000 , think about that Westy , work all the time and you'll be rich !
I meant 2000 hours !
Oh well !
