    You could argue, mine is normal caused by the state of the world today and yours is fucked up.

    Having loads of money and gold diggers only after me for it, sounds like a good problem to me.

    Years back knew a bird only after money, made out rich, had some fun, got caught them I'm in the wrong and she hates me, good times, borrow mates posh car serves them right imho :)

  4. There is two things you might be confusing : getting rich vs staying rich.
    The person you are describing above are working hard to get on the "poor ladder" or to finish on the poor ladder.
    You should go and do some volunteering in soup kitchen : you'll be surprised of how many people went from very rich to poor. Also, there is a good reason that a rich person main fear is to be poor : one fast lane to poverty is the mindset regarding dating.

    Ahhhh but there the wise ones, they made it, they had fun blowing it, they just lived longer than they expected, much better than dying with unspent money in the bank.

  6. Looks like something is disturbing you.
    If you want to find out a bit more , there are also retirement homes to volunteer in :
    all these people full of regrets ! Many talking "King Salomon's style" - who "lived" it up, and who realised his foly.

    Highnsight is a great thing, how did they know then wouldn't be hit by a bus or have a heart attack, they didnt so they spent it hard like there is no tomorrow.

    Your only seeing the ones that lived longer, the dead with money wasted in there accounts, don't get to complain, but if they could they would.

  9. Even the dead have few minutes to talk when they die.
    Strangely, never heard any person working with people who are at their dying moment saying
    " they want pussies".
    Sometimes, some people say, that in their moment of death, many people talk about what is important, and do not want to waste time.
