My great grandfather was a very wealthy man. Owned businesses and commercial properties. Wouldn't let his kids touch any of it. Ok, he paid them allowances.
When he died, his kids squandered it on race horses, sports cars and the like.
They didn't learn how to manage their money.
I suspect it is a common story for America's rich and famous.
Lotto jackpot is 15 million tonite. If I win , it will be my Solomon pledge to squander as much as possible. Don’t have kids to do it for me
What are you up to this morning Trog, working or squandering? [bighmmm]

Oi ! Enough of that , no phone call so resumed my place at the bottom of the pecking order. Enjoyed the solitude of my walk in by planning the most painful possible injuries on the brains trust that run the place. Unfortunately voodoo thoughts are as useless as my ticket.Quote:
