Things I can afford that the middle class cannot.


That sweet piece of aviation beauty is my Cessna Citation. I may be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure there isn't a middle class soul out there who has fractional ownership in one of these. Let's be serious, a member of the middle class has probably never see the inside of a Citation. They get to cram into a ratty commercial airline with all the other tourists and salesmen.

Do you think they like sitting next to the gentleman who needs the seatbelt extender? Do they enjoy it when spastic little kids kick the back of their seats? Of course not. But they have to deal with it because that's all they can afford. Though they dream of the day when they accumulate enough frequent flier miles to get that upgrade.

Such sad, unattainable dreams.
