| There are a lot of people on TV telling about how they won the lottery, and some take it very well, others it only brought them trouble and wish they'd never won it, etc. Of course there's a lot of responsibility with a lot of money, first thing you'd have to do is get a good tax attorney, get the taxes figured out, and then there'd be people always trying to get money out of you, but do you think if you won the lottery or some other way came into a lot of money, that you could handle it? That you could still remain level headed and not blow it all in a few years?
I think people who are irresponsible with money are going to be irresponsible with it whether it's $100 or $100M, I don't think suddenly having money turns a responsible person irresponsible, just when you don't have as much you can hide it better. That said I think we could handle it pretty well, I'm a little frivilous, buy quite a bit of things that I don't need or at least right away, but I would not suddenly be like some people you see buying 20 cars and a 3 million dollar home and 600 pairs of shoes and 50 inch TVs in every room and stuff like that. I think I'd be a much smaller scale spender. | |

| I'd like to think so but the rest of you better hope I never strike it rich. That will signal the end of the world. | |
