    And as you know full well, or at least I hope you do, unless you're wired the same way (in that respect) as the impotent one from Sweden, life's not all about money! There are FAR, FAR more important things, which matter MUCH more, such as experiencing true happiness/contentment, enjoying a close and fulfilling relationship with your loved ones, and having good health.

    I'm truly blessed by having all of that, and wouldn't swap it for all the money in the world!!

    Dude, I never have been, nor ever will be, driven by money, and Del's the same. We've got more than enough to allow us to lead a comfortable life, certainly for the time we'll be here on this earth.

    Money is a massive issue in my life. I constantly worry about it & basically every interest i have requires large amounts of it, Hence why im always a nasty cunt out of frustration, basically the reason i never get anywhere. Na money is also a way in not to worry about paying bills & stuff..

    I agree about Happiness in life as in the wife, but im not one for other people as company anyway. I am a loner always have been.

    I would not have that guys life given on a plate.

    Yup, he's clearly leading a pretty sad existence [and his protestations to the contrary aren't convincing anyone], by trying to use money to buy happiness (particularly his son's love, which is the *really* sad bit), and judging 'success' by the contents of his bank account and/or the material possessions he owns. It's not only vulgar, but grossly insecure.

    His obsession with money [and pathological insecurity over it] all stems from growing up not having much of it. You tend to focus on finances, and see money differently, when you've grown up, as I have, in the fortunate position of not having wanted for anything; in which case you become much more relaxed about money [i.e. *it* serves you, rather than *you* serving it], and so all that matters is simply having 'enough', and thankfully we reached that stage years ago

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Lol - what are you like?

    You need to try and control that OCD thing, dude, and just RELAX and ENJOY life. Be careful what you eat, by all means, and eat healthily, but don't *obsess* about your weight. Who says you need to be 11 stone? For your height and build, for me that's too light.
