    Legion loser also I lost half at 40 yrs old 100k, still the best move I ever made.
    Legion I'm a schmuck; that is exactly the point. Any copycat schmuck can do it.
    Chris: I volunteered. I dropped out of college, told 'em I wanted the infantry, combat, Vietnam.
    Crawford: You volunteered for this shit, man?
    C Believe that?
    K You's a crazy fucker, giving up college?
    C Didn't make much sense, I wasn't learning anything
    k Oh, I see, what we got here is a crusader.
    C Sounds like it.
    K Shiiit, you gotta be rich in the first place to think like that. Ever'body know, the poor are always being fucked over by the rich. Always have, always will.

    Legion I said wealth not income. 1 mil in financial assets is top 2 percent.
    Chris: I volunteered. I dropped out of college, told 'em I wanted the infantry, combat, Vietnam.
