Wide body comfort, medium jet economy.

I would totally rock a rebuilt 737 if I were filthy rich.

I would have to be extravagantly wealthy. I think if I were at some point very wealthy, I would live on a yacht. You can get all the comfort and space of home, plus mobility and terrific ocean/lake views. It just seems like a better investment, because really, you can't live on an airplane, you'll end up spending a very minimal amount of time in a jet (when owning a jet) as compared to living on a yacht

They still fly those up here... Serious, even the Wikipedia article has a Canadian North plane in the 737-200C section.

I remember reading on Jalopnik (in a time before FlightClub) that the 737-200C was one of the worst planes still in service.

Ahh, and you had a comment in there, look at you go!

WHAT??? I though the 777 was like 8 years old. I obviously spent most of the '00s in a drunken stupor
