A pair of Long Island Trump voters visited Ireland recently. I think they were in their late 60s / early 70s. It looks like the current administration will be downsizing or disbanding the organisation their daughter works at and she'll likely lose her job.
Some other changes made by this administration mean that several of their investments are losing value. So they're very unhappy about him being in power now, although apparently the rape thing and being an overall creep was never an issue.
Anyway, Id' read that people like this exist and never actually saw / heard them before. It's real folks. They don't seem particularly bright but it seems they've done well for themselves in life.
I'm guessing a long islander with enough money to travel to Europe wouldn't fall into those categories.
I know people from that area. If they come from old money they tend to live off interest. 1mil give 40k at 4% and if house is paid off. Then than pays for the taxes on home and some other utilities. Then add the pension most people got back then and you're golden.
success is not positively correlated to intelligence. past a certain point it is negatively correlated. see: the richest man in the world right now.
Correct. These people were educated professionals. Specifically, one was an engineer.
