Just because you do not see it on a daily basis doesnt mean the money is not here. People just have a tendancy to not flaunt thier money around here compared to other places in the country. I personally know around two dozen local millionaires, probably more. Most of them you would never be able to tell. Buffalo has a CRAZY amount of successful small business owners (considering the size of the city)… small business is what drives this town. Another thing to consider is that this is a town where many of the rich migrate to other areas for the winter, meaning multiple houses, multiple cars, etc. ---

> [@AKA-FERRARI](#): > > tom…SERVICE is the backbone of wny. industry is fading and fading fast. I said small business, so even though your post is irrelevant in regards to my statement, I will reply with this… It depends on who you talk to. I have family in the manufacturing/machining business and they have more business than they know what to do with (last I checked), but overall, I believe that yes, the service sector is definately going to be where businesses thrive more going into the future. :touchy: ---

Coors Light Tom is right, Buffalo is a dirty disgusting town in a lot of areas. Rochester is a much cleaner city for sure. ---

This has nothing to do with Buffalo or it’s perceived vitality. It has everything to do with rich people living in Buffalo, and driving fancy cars. Buffalo’s stability as a city has nothing to do with it. Those rich people are probably smart to live in Buffalo, as the real estate prices compared to the rest of the country are dirt cheap. If you have been paying attention, a lot of real estate around Buffalo is getting bought up in the last four years DESPITE business leaving. Wonder why that is? Buffalo doesn’t have to thrive for rich people to live here (on the cheap) and buy Bentleys. ---

I have to agree, as poor as buffalo looks, it is really deceiving. There is alot of money here but it is hidden. Tucked away not soo out in the open. There is still a blue collar sensibility to MOST peoples spending. Some spend wildly. The one thing, and unfortunatly for me, the parents of wealthy families dont give alot of it to their kids to blow on car stuff, there are obviously exceptions to this rule. This is why you dont see more kids rolling around in EVOs, STi, corvettes, benz etc…i think the parents are a little smarter than that around here. Or i could be wrong and just talking out my ass, but this is what i noticed. Hell it would be nice to have a few more customers who dont care and just want everything done right no matter what the cost instead of having to bandaid shit because of lack of funds. ---
