'For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul ?'

Just been reading that the world's richest billionaires had seen their wealth increase by several billions

Not picking on Mr Besos in particular - other billionaires are available

And before anyone says it - No I'm not jealous at all

What's your thoughts on the subject ?

The good life -( american tv prog) was predicated on a Hillary win and had to be rewritten for Trump

one of the lawyers has to go back to work because she has lost her fortune around the election
and later
she is rung up by her market manager and is told_ you can retire again, you are back to being a millionaress as a result of Trumps tax reforms

Trumps tax reforms have led to a boom - so he will be re elected, but has also empowered the very rich to become ...... even richer

as my brother said
you can only live in one room at a time

[Old_Geezer]

Very nice. I'd change places with him.
What makes you consider that he may have lost his soul ?

[Bazile]

Yes jno - I recall reading that the divorce was a very amicable affair

[Bazile]

Just thought I'd throw that one in OG

Money can't buy you happiness but it does bring you a more pleasant form of misery.
