[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1283169, member: 4362"] After listening to Thomas Mabe, he convinced me to keep them on the phone. As luck had it Dunn and Bradstreet called while this was fresh on my mind and they got to asking all sorts of personal financial questions. The guy on the phone said he had me down as making $150,000/year .... I was shocked and was just about to hang up the phone when I heard Mabe say "keep them on the phone". I said, "say what?" .... telemarketer said .... "is this wrong?" .... I said, "yes, it most certainly is why with the economy booming like it is I'd be surprised if I don't make at least $850,000 this year". Like Mabe suggested, I kept him on the phone and found out what the weather was like in Chicago, how many children the guy had, their names, their pets and their names. We must have talked for 45 minutes thus taking one telemarketer off the phone for said time. I was tickled with myself. Everyone got a big laugh out of it. Until. About three months went by and we were eating supper and there came a knock on the door. I answered the door to find a deputy standing at the door and he apologized but said he had to serve me some papers and he handed me an 8 inch ream of paper. It was a lawsuit from my X. She was filing contempt of court papers because "she knew I was hiding money from her and she knew I made $850,000/year. And yes, we ended up going to court but she didn't make out like she had hoped. :lol2: [/QUOTE]
