    The only thing these people can say honestly is, they have big egos. HOORAY!!!
    Wouldn't you rather be remembered for the good things you did for someone else?

    I suppose nothing wrong with money if it comes with a little class and not so much ego. I've wondered before, if for some reason I won the lottery, would I see to it something good came of it. :cool:

    That's easy MC. You'd be the same person you are now--only more of you. If you are already on an ego trip, a few extra mil. only makes for more ego.

    I believe a good person inherantly knows when and how to help others, no matter how much or how little money they have. The shallow character only thinks of himself and how to please himself.

    So, this concludes today's session with Dr. Dog.

    Jacque and I were talking about winning the Big One last evening...Nothing much would change...We would retire at 60...Live in the same house but she would want a new kitchen...Our cars and bike are fine...We would take a few nice trips...Be very charitable...That is about it...Were just basic people...

    Well, I'd get a couple more bikes and maybe a nice Cadillac. But then I'd need a bigger garage, and it shouldn't look bigger than the house, so.........ah crap.

    well if I won the big one(which probably won't happen since I don't play it) would get all the kids set up with their own place, retire from work, and do whatever the hell I wanted too!!! LOL:D

    Bobby, that's what I'm talking about how to spend money if I had it. Take care of your family and others that are in desperate situations. And do what you want, but be a real human being.
