Re: Money Money Money

Indeed, when was the last time you saw a poor and destitute religious leader?

Sure, most of them will claim that it isn't theirs, but they sure bask in the glow of it's close proximity.

I'm rich. I have more than most people. I've got a wonderful family made up of the three cutest kids I've ever seen and a wife that just adores me. My family is very healthy, I have a career and a job to fill that career, health insurance for my entire family. I love playing with my kids and have the extra time to do so every day.

And here's the kicker, even though I am so rich, I still live a very simple lifestyle.

Now that's the secret to not get taxed on it. Remember, rich people are despised in this country.

I told you that pretending to be poor when you are rich is the way to go.

Re: Money Money Money

R0bb0b is right, and if you realize the things in life that really make you rich then the riches will just keep coming. I am 27, have a wife and healthy 10 month old son, a decent education, friends, family whom i love and loves me, and all of these are the important things to appreciate.

Sure i could do with some more money. i make a living a that keeps my family fed and roof over our heads with no major bells or whistles but the more you have the more you want. The best thing to do is enjoy what you have and help others enjoy what they have. thats what life is all about.

What really ticks me off are the multi-millionaire/billionaires who would'nt give a cent to help a good cause. Nobody needs that much money.
