<DIV><BR></DIV><BR>Kai stated and inquired:<BR> <BR>"How many people have
received a huge windfall, think movie stars or pro athletes as examples, then
died flat broke and deep in debt?<BR><BR>Comprende?"<BR> <BR>I will agree
with you, Kai, to the extent that many (too many to count) professional athletes
and movie stars have found themselves virtually destitute within a few short
years of their instant wealth.<BR> <BR>However, a vast majority (almost
all) of those professional athletes (and move stars for that matter) who
signed lucrative contracts (signing bonuses in the millions) were either fresh
out of college or supported by others. they were not
independent.<BR> <BR>Had these individuals learned responsibility and (as
my father calls it) "the value of a buck", outcomes would have been alot
different for most of them.<BR> <BR>The only exception to this rule (in my
opinion) is Paris Hilton who has never learned responsibility and will probably
never need to. <BR> <BR>So, you see, Kai . . . It's a matter of living
and learning. Those who fail to learn, because the silver spoon was handed
to them right out of college, possess a high probability of failure in the long
run.<BR> <BR>Those who have lived a few years and learned responsibility
and, perhaps victims of the cards falling the wrong way, become a member of the
"have nots", understand the value of responsibility.<BR> <BR>Enough
said.<BR> <BR>Verstehen sie?<BR> <BR>Tom Hansen<BR>Moscow, Idaho<BR>
