The Louisiana Purchase, the greatest real estate investment of all time. TFM.

      Yeah give it back so you can buy your seafood from Vietnam. Also having control of the Mississippi river is crucial you dumb fuck.

      Third world country? California can buy and sell most of the geed ass southern states ten times over. Without northern subsidies, the South would collectively be a third world country (minus Texas). Look up the federal tax revenue vs. expenditure ratios by state, you idiots. Almost all the biggest welfare states on that list are in the South.
      If you worthless geeds want to secede again, I say go ahead. You aren’t pulling your weight anyway. You need us, but we sure as hell don’t need you.

      I assume you’re from California then, in which case you probably aren’t real old money. Almost all real old money comes from the South

      With the massive amount of debt California is in, they couldn’t buy a single “geed ass southern state” even once. totaloldmoneymove, you, are a dumbass.

      Second AUFAF. If you Californians weren’t complete dumbasses you would have legalized marijuana and stopped giving teachers $100k pensions. Problem solved. But alas, you did not do this and your state continues to be the geediest state in the nation.

      california has one of the highest state debts in the country. There are only about three states that are not in debt Arkansas is one and I know at least one other is in the South. So no California could not buy any states. Shut the fuck up *totaloldmoneymove

      1) Most old money comes from the North. There’s very little of it in the south. I’m a Californian and my old money goes back to 19th century New York banking. You southern geeds consider a two-story starter McMansion and a car dealership to be “old money”, which is fucking hysterical.
      2) California’s GDP is almost 2 trillion dollars. The temporary $20 billion deficit we are running so far this year is fucking chump change for us, and will be closed in short order. Only a southern geed living in one of those poor-ass swamp states would think that $20 billion is a lot of government money.
      3) Marijuana is still basically legal here, even though Prop 13 didn’t pass. Even if you don’t have a prescription (which is easy as fuck to get), cops don’t give a shit even if you smoke it in public. And if they do decide to bust you, the most they can legally do is write you a $100 ticket.
      4) Among the endless list of reasons why California is FaF, we produced the frattiest president in American history, Ronald Reagan. (Yes, geeds, I know he was born in Illinois. That doesn’t mean shit. He went to college here, started his career here, was governor here, retired here, and died here).

      Maybe someday, after a few generations, your family can parlay that dealership into something respectable and build a true family estate.

      Hey totaloldmoney, do us a favor and kill yourself. Please. We don’t want your retarded sperm poisoning our great country. Take one for the team and kill yourself. Preferably by tomorrow. Thanks.

      14 years ago at 6:22 pm
    12. totaloldmoneymove

      Frattiesburg – 1) Why would I kill myself? That’s for fucking losers. Even if I wanted to, I’d have to wait until my first son was born. I have an empire to pass on. I’m not going to die and let the fucking government take my estate to fund the goddamn Tennessee Valley (Welfare) Authority to subsidize your fucking dirt farms.
      2) “Take one for the team”? I’m not on your fucking team. I only join winning teams. You’re a southern geed which means you lose at everything. Get the fuck out of here – a true TFM is clearly something you’ve never experienced.

      Sorry but this conversation is too funny to pass up!
      Let’s try this.
      I am a Junior at UT, born and raised in Texas, Daddy is good friends with Bush and I support Perry. I am as Southern Strat as it gets.
      1) “Most old money comes from the North.” Tobacco, (the country’s FIRST trade) Cotton, (king south) trade on the Mississippi, banking (equally as strong in Texas, Miss., and Bama. I could name more but I have a feeling I don’t have too. “I’m a Californian and my old money goes back to 19th century New York banking.” Well aren’t you fancy, Full family blood line in Texas, late 16th tobacco farming and trade. Beat that bitch.;) “You southern geeds consider a two-story starter McMansion and a car dealership to be “old money”, which is fucking hysterical” Who are you quoting? No one in the south shares that standard.
      2) You clearly haven’t been to the south. Come visit. Just don’t bring your GDI, drug smoking, hippie ass on my estate or Daddy will shoot you. Welcome to Texas.
      3) Forget your drugs. While your smoking in Cali, I’ll be making a life for myself. I’d tell you I want fries with that but I’m too good for whatever fast food place you’ll be working.
      4) “Among the endless list of reasons why California is FaF” it’s not. I don’t need an argument for it, It’s just not. “we produced the frattiest president in American history, Ronald Reagan” Reagan, FaF, from Cali, BS.

      Poli major. I know my shit.
      SOUTHERN BY THE GRACE OF GOD
      You sir, are an embarrassment to the North and to anyone who is TRUELY old money.

      Much love<3

      Couple things, a lot of good points are being made on both sides and plenty of people are also being douche. I’m not going to fact check on all matters contained within the thread; however, the college home of Ronald Reagan is Eureka… located off Highway 74 in Illinois. I drive there quarterly to pay homage to the man who cut my families taxes from 71%.

      Sorry, Mrs Perfection, but old farming money stays in the South because shitty farmland could probably only buy a 3bdrm townhouse on the east coast.
      And why so much hate towards “smoking”? I mean, Texas sells an ounce for dirt cheap. Shits weak, but sooo cheap.

      This is exactly why none of your friends like you. You are a complete douche bag and know nothing about the Louisiana purchase, which is why you have to resort to calling the south gdi. You are an incompetent geed who most likely has a tiny penis and feels the urge to pick on others to make you feel like a man. Now do us all a favor and never post on this sight again so us true fratstars don’t have to listen to you bitching about how we are better than you. Also try not to post the exact same comment twice on one TFM to save yourself some shame

      14 years ago at 6:44 pm
    2. totaloldmoneymove

      Your entire comment is negated by the fact that you are from Baton Rouge. Back you geed-land you go, Swampy…..

      Once again, your Cali douche bag brain is too slow to have a comeback so you just call the south gdi. Thank you for proving my point

    Fuck balling totaloldmoneymove. Motion to cut off his balls.

    I don’t give a shit how old your Northern Money is. Can’t be too old if you moved to the midwest after the Homestead Act and got booted to the West Coast by the Dust Bowl…

    Real Northern old money goes further east and further north. The Lodge families, the Forbes families, and oldest roots of the Bush families, the Duponts, and the Astors all stayed East. If you had any respect for your so called empire you’d be on the Gold Coast or the Upper East Side, not fucking smoking pot like a hippy in California. I go to school in the South and I was raised in New England, but North or South, East coast is centuries older than your geedy west coast.

    14 years ago at 11:48 pm
    1. totaloldmoneymove

      Motion denied, you fucking geed. Don’t even attempt to associate yourself with the Du Pont family (you don’t even know how to spell it properly) or the Astors. Clearly you have no connection with New England old money if you had to settle for a safety school in the South.

      Dear totaloldmoneymove,
      Your jealousy is showing<3
      Everyone knows that the south is where you go for a high education. Also, this guy clearly knows what he is talking about so why don't you take your northern but off the site and go back to playing pretend in your middle class life that you so belong in!
      Much love!

      “Everyone knows that the south is where you go for a high education.” —– Oh really? Is that why 80% of the schools in the USNWR top-100 national university rankings are located OUTSIDE of the South?
