Hhhmmmm...

It's funny how people think that money gives you class. It may give some people nice cars, nice homes and nice clothes, but money - by far - does not give you class. You can put a nice, shiny ribbon on crap, but in the end, it is still crap.

A friend told me recently that her boss donated large sums of money to many different organizations - specifically children's charities. However, he was out most nights of the week drinking while his kids were at home without him. He presented himself to be this outstanding man of honor, yet was carrying on various extramarital affairs.

I have noticed that a lot of people change when money comes into their lives - and it doesn't even have to be an overwhelming amount of money. It's funny how we change who we are, how we act and who our friends are because our financial status changes. A true friend is not someone who will ride in the limo with you, but will ride on the bus when the limo breaks down.

Just an observation....
