BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted March 1, 2014 BassResource.com Administrator Posted March 1, 2014 If you could find out how many times you've done a certain thing or how many times a certain thing has been done to you, what would that thing be? Some examples might be, 'how many people actually love you', and 'the number of times you've been right or wrong in an argument'. Let's face it, there are plenty of other things you might want to know about yourself; how many times you've flexed or danced in front of a mirror, how many times you've loaned money and didn't get paid back, or how many people are jealous of you and why. Today we wanted to know: IF YOU COULD SEE ONE STATISTIC ABOUT YOURSELF, WHAT WOULD IT BE? Quote
The Rooster Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I've thought about this plenty of times. Mine is, I want to know to the penny how much money I've ever wasted in my life. It wouldn't surprise me to learn it was enough to buy a very nice new car. Quote

Super User Long Mike Posted March 1, 2014 Super User Posted March 1, 2014 It's an intangible statistic, but I would love to know the number of times that I have made a positive influence on someone's life. 4 Quote

Today we wanted to know: IF YOU COULD SEE ONE STATISTIC ABOUT YOURSELF, WHAT WOULD IT BE? First off I wouldn't change a thing, been a good husband, father and provider. I have loaned money many times and have not gotten it back. If someone needed 10 -15 or even $ 50 bucks, that isn't a loan I'd just give it to them. I've made loans or investments in business knowing up front it's all greed motivated, where reward is involved so is risk. Don't regret any of my losses, I took a shot and didn't work out, but some did............. Quote
Super User Jar11591 Posted March 1, 2014 Super User Posted March 1, 2014 I want to know the total number if bass I've caught, as well as the combined weight of all the bass I've caught. Quote

fish-fighting-illini Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I want to know the total number if bass I've caught, as well as the combined weight of all the bass I've caught. I couldn't do this because then it would count as 3 because I would also find out how much I've fibbed and exagerated! 2 Quote
fish-fighting-illini Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 To Long Mike's point I'd like to know when those times that I have tried to pick up someone's spirit or encouraged them or given a youth some guidance that it has made a difference. Quote

Super User Root beer Posted March 2, 2014 Super User Posted March 2, 2014 Well, I thought about this and then I thought about this quote, "there are three lies: lies, dam lies, and statistic." Doesn't matter what I want to know, it's probably a lie anyhow. Ha. Quote
