Mickwhitt 4,617 #1 Posted August 20, 2023 What a hunk of junk! A burned out shell found when the roof blew off a barn. Turns out it was a ferrari of which only 13 were built. The thing caught fire in a race and was bought by a collector. It's just been bought to be restored. Price tag for the rusted shell? Two million dollars! WOW! 3 2 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mickwhitt 4,617 #8 Posted August 22, 2023 Er? Buy your own island, fly to space for three minutes, buy sports teams, not to mention run for president /prime minister. Plenty to do with endless cash. It's just a shame that so few have so much and so many have so little. Typical of the human race I'm afraid. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my opinion, the traits that help one amass huge wealth rarely inspire altruism. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
