Once I asked a customer, "What do you consider a significant amount of
money?" His answer, "We control to 1/100 of a cent."

That's when I learned the wholesale grocery business is different,
really different! When you're selling a million cans of peas* every
day, that 1/100 of a cent adds up....

*If you don't like peas, you may substitute corn. ;-)

It all adds up. For example, I do NOT waste money on such bullshit as
bottled water. I don't have to have the latest in LCD or plasma TV's. I
don't have to vacation 4 times a year. I don't pay hardly ANY service
charges to my bank where I have but ONE, yes ONE account. I don't make
multiple trips to the supermarket a week when ONE trip does quite nicely. I
paid off my house mortgage in less than FIVE years. I don't insist in living
in as big a house as I could afford to live in. All of the above save me
THOUSANDS every year.

What's odd? That's probably HOW he got the million dollar portfolio,
by not spending money if not necessary.
