It must be an enormous burden, being wealthy.  Not knowing if you have genuine friends  or if they are just milking you.

Ever seen 'The Secret Millionaire' ?  I love that program.

Or they use paper money to wipe with. Here in Australia they can't do that though - our money is plastic and so it would just smear. :P

i think it is a Channel 4 program.  Every episode is about a millionaire who goes 'undercover'.  They have a bedsit for a couple of weeks and volunteer to help at local charities.  They pretend to be poor.  At the end they choose which charity to give a pile of cash to.  They often choose all of them.  They go and present them with a big cheque and reveal who they really are.

At least half of it sounded like oversimplified bullshit to me.  Remind me to maybe rant more at a later time.  The short version is "I think they're wrong."
this is a later time.
Yeah, I think my original post covered it, actually.   :zoinks:

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

Same here.  :LOL:

I do seem to stumble upon everything I need though.
Maybe we're just too content and not thinking big enough. :dunno:

Your statement assumes wealthy people give money to their friends, or their friends need their money.

Maybe they're jerks and have no choice but to buy friends.

But then I'll never know if you're my friend or if you're using me.
