Financial Papers Show Palins' Assets Top $1 Million


This is so not newsworthy. $1M isn't that much these days when you add in
the value of real estate and businesses. And 401(k)s can grow quite nicely
with tax-deferred status and employer contributions. Of course, the value
of those retirement and investment accounts won't reflect their current
value, which is way down at the moment.


I took the most conservative estimate I found, many said "over 2.3 million",
and it is newsworthy, in *my* opinion, when one is trying to bill themselves
as 'joe six-pack, sitting around the kitchen table trying to pay their
bills.'

I also dispute the fact that taxes weren't paid on the per diem of $17,000
and pawning ones expensive *hobby* of snow-machine racing as a *job*.

Again, you'll note by far the majority of posts I've made this week have
been 'on topic'. And I did note this one as 'off topic'.
