Must be nice to forget where you came from. It always amazes me when people that wealthy raise children that aren't spoiled brats and have some awareness and gratefulness. I don't think any of those people will do that. |

I wish I could have billions of dollars right now. I sure as heck wouldn't be on this POS computer, or driving a POS car. |

You're driving the car I want, well I want a 240sx, but I'd rip out the stock motor and put an RB25DET or SR20DEt in it instead. I'm tryin to save for one actually. |

I am happy with where I am in life right now, but I have to continue college. Not for my sake, but for the sake of giving my girlfriend and our kids(one day) a really great life. Its not like I'm in college for anything that pays amazingly anyway. Teaching is just one of the few jobs I feel like I would really be helping people with. All those vacations are gonna be nice too Really, all you have to do is surround yourself with good people, find a few things you like to do, and live. Enjoying yourself is the closest thing to the meaning of life we will ever find. Once this rollercoaster is slowing down we will look back on the breathtaking drops and fun loops, not the wait in line and the climb up the hill. |

Yeah, life is all about family and friends and giving. Great wealth is generally not a recipe for success. "It's lonely at the top" didn't get to be a saying for nothing. |

Nice find I stayed at the one hotel listed - The Ritz Carlton in Cancun. The only thing I asked for was more Mimosa's, lox, and bagels What was I thinking?

I've only stayed in a couple hotels... I'm used to staying in cheap-o motels on road trips. Spent a lot of time racing up and down the halls with the luggage carts the few times that's happened. I've been in hotels in Toronto, Cleveland, and Charlotte... In Cleveland and Charlotte there was a huge group, and we took up the entirety of one of the floors, so we could do whatever we wanted pretty much. |

Hey the Sagamore! That's in my home town! Quote: The Sagamore Resort
Lake George, N.Y. Sometimes a guest's requests are so outrageous they cannot be fulfilled, no matter how dedicated the concierge. At this Victorian-era resort a guest asked the concierge to promptly "send engineering to my room to change my fireplace from gas-burning to wood-burning." Another guest who was getting poor cellphone reception urged the concierge to have a cell tower installed at once. Another guest begged the concierge to find an all-day sitter for his 4-year-old son on Christmas Day; the concierge found not one, but two. |
