Dusty's last run in WWE didn't help his legacy much.
But his decade long feud with Ric Flair, the Horsemen and the perfect 10, Baby Doll, in Crockett was epic.

Cody Rhodes went to AEW and then came back to WWE to "finish the story". Sometimes you have to leave to show WWE you're worth it. That you can be the face of the company. I'm sure Vince told Cody no. Well Vince is out and HHH sees Cody is popular. He can be the face of the company. People love him. But it was cool that his goal was to finish his dad's story. Because his dad never got to be the top/face of the company even though he probably should have been. So Cody finished the story for the family name. Pretty cool.

Oops. Like Trump, I over valuated my home. I was counting it as $500K when it's only worth $200K. But we/they all do it.
Trump didn’t overvalue it. See you don’t understand basic Econ and finance.
That NYC suit is a sham and will be overturned.

If it's overturned the system is indeed rigged.
Trump admitted he did it. His argument was "they all do it". Which is not true.
Remember 2016 Hillary said Trump doesn't pay taxes and he said that makes him smart? Can't take you seriously when every guilty verdict is a sham
Trump Organization fined $1.6 million for long-running tax fraud scheme
Former President Donald Trump's company was sentenced by a New York judge after a jury convicted two subsidiaries last month on 17 counts of tax fraud.The Trump Organization was hit with $1.6 million in fines Friday when a New York judge sentenced it for running a 15-year tax fraud scheme that prosecutors said top executives at the company orchestrated out of pure greed.
Trump Corp. and Trump Payroll Corp. — both subsidiaries of the Trump Organization — were convicted last month on 17 counts, including conspiracy, criminal tax fraud and falsifying business records.
Pile of Rocks, Banks do their own 3rd party assessments. They don’t lend on what the consumer says. Try it with your house. The Bank was happy with the loan. It was repaid as agreed. The Bank said they would make the same loan again. There was no victim. That property is easily worth $200mil not the $10mil the idiot DEI AG said it was.
It will be overturned. Garner a college degree in order to debate me on this issue and yeah, everyone does this.

Household wealth swelled at a record pace from 2019 to 2022, the median net worth of American families jumped 37% to $192,900, after adjusting for inflation. It’s the largest increase ever recorded by the federal Survey of Consumer Finances, released last fall. Surging home values and rising stock ownership fed the surge.

You don’t have kids. I do. My expenses are higher. You keep pointing to macroeconomics not microeconomics. A lot of that wealth is in retirement accounts, which can’t be touched without penalty until one is retirement age. Pile of rocks, you are not wealthy.

In 1977, Dusty wasn't going to become WWWF champion, Vince Sr. already had Backlund penciled in to beat Superstar Graham.
Dusty might have become champ in 1984 but Vince Sr. decided to go with the Hulkster and Rhodes had a top position himself as the big draw with Crockett.

My brother and I had this conversation. Could I afford a $1 million dollar home? Probably not. I mean I could but boy would the taxes kill me. I'm lucky I still live in the condo I bought for $58K. Taxes are low. Place is paid off. No kids. No student loans.
So you’re middle class. Not rich. Now we are naming progress, pile of rocks. Do you have retirement accounts?

I told you I am way better than the median but not quite to the average
50-somethings
- Average net worth: $1,132,532 (ages 50-54), $1,442,075 (ages 55-59)
- Median net worth: $272,800 (ages 50-54), $320,700 (ages 55-59)
Which means I'm probably better off than you even in your 60's

In 2024, a household income of around $106,000 to $150,000 would put a household in the upper middle class in most cities.
Now factor in my bills. I have none. No kids to pay for. No debt. So I'm banking my money and living a lifestyle of upper middle class, even if I'm not technically in the upper middle class.
You didn’t answer me. Do you have retirement accounts or not

There is considerable debate as to how the upper middle class might be defined. According to sociologist Max Weber, the upper middle class consists of well-educated professionals with postgraduate degrees and comfortable incomes.
In the United States, the upper middle class is defined as consisting mostly of white-collar professionals who not only have above-average personal incomes and advanced educational degrees[1] but also a higher degree of autonomy in their work.[2] The main occupational tasks of upper-middle-class individuals tend to center on conceptualizing, consulting, and instruction.
Sounds like me
In academic models, the term "upper middle class" applies to highly educated, salaried professionals whose work is largely self-directed. Many have postgraduate degrees, with educational attainment serving as the main distinguishing feature of this class. Household incomes commonly exceed $100,000 ($163,000 in 2024 dollars).[5] Typical professions for this class include lawyers, physicians, military officers, psychologists, certified public accountants, pharmacists, optometrists, financial planners, dentists, engineers, scientists, professors, architects, urban planners, civil service executives, and civilian contractors.
They forgot SALES
Overall, members of this class are also secure from economic down-turns and, unlike their counterparts in the statistical middle class, do not need to fear downsizing, corporate cost-cutting, or outsourcing—an economic benefit largely attributable to their postgraduate degrees and comfortable incomes, likely in the top income quintile or top third.[1]
I'm trying to find where it said "being able to save above and beyond your 401K and being able to buy the things you want too like a vacation home, boat, quad.
Making almost $100K and being a sink (single income no kids) makes me upper middle class. But I admit right on the edge.

My 401K. My money with Charles Schwab. My rollover 401K from the 90's. My rollover 401K from the 2000's. I have some ROTH investments with my bank. Do you want my mothers maiden name?
Oh yea and my $20K I put in a 5% CD for 7 months. Due in March. That's in case I lose my job. Plus my checking account is over $15K. When it goes over $20K I invest $10K. I always want to have $10K in checking and $20K I can tap into if I need it come March.
