Mines bigger - I make $800k and I inherited $16.7 M and I married a perfect 10 model (with prenup) and I adopted 6 kids and I own 3 super cars, 2 boats and I saved 16 people from a fire

Oh and I may run for president in 12 years

P.s. this is tongue in cheek too (not)

I call BS on the pre-nup!! Lol

Okay??

Tongue in cheek post in response to all the ridiculous AMA posts we get in this bowl.

Hmmm what degrees do you have and where do you live? And congrats on the kiddo!

Should I stay or should I go now?

If you go, will there be trouble? If you stay, will it be double?
