Did he have to suck as many cocks as you did Sin?

5 star hotels are kinda the same no matter where in the world you are. I find them boring.

Mothafuckas KILLL me trying to put othe people on shout for being wealthy, when we as Americans have it pounded into our heads daily that we are the richest country in the world and that therefore is the reason why everyone hates us and is jealous of us...that is total BULL. Newsflash: there are a number of countries that are just as wealthy as we are, and have people who live larger than we do ,and BIG DEAL. SO WHAT. They believe in free enterprise just as we do and forecefully try to spread globally very 5 minutes, so, unless we're simply being envious of how they're rolling... perhaps we should shut the hell up and live and let live ...I've been to parts of rural Atlanta where kids are walking around barefoot sucking on juicepops for lunch and I don't see folks over in Dunwoody or Alpharetta running over to the hood in their oversized gas guzzling Mercedes with pinic baskets trying to feed them: and WHY??? Because let's be real: America is the land of DO IT YOURSELF, PULL YOURSELF UP BY YA BOOTSTAPS IF YOU WANT TO EAT OR HAVE A BIG HOUSE AND DON'T BE MAD AT ME JUST COZ I GOT OVER BECAUSE YOU SHOULD DO IT YA DAMN SELF...if that's our metality then who the HELL are we to be judging somebody else because they are freely exercising capitalist principals for their own wealth...noit to mention, we don't know WHO these people give their money to for charity purposes or what programs they fund to help the less fortunate, so WHY JUDGE?

Okay. rant over...and I swear I didn't mean that BITCHY

It's not bitchy, it's true. America is a land of extremes. Most people know that.

Well, there does come a point where things are just ridiculously over-the-top as far as what extreme amounts of money can buy. This is one of those cases, no question. You can't seriously say that this is "normal" wealth, and normal behavior. My cousin lives in Dubai, and from what I've heard from her, it's pretty damn ridiculous as far as how much money is put into the non-stop construction that takes place there, and the building of even more things like this.

Yes, we all need islands and solid silver cars in our lives.

meow85 said:

that is not true! what's considered five star in the country where I live is only a three star in a place like France or England. Just sayin'.

JasmineFire said:

This is true. It all depends on what country you're in.

DexMSR said:

purrrrr

JasmineFire said:

Okay then. FANCY hotels are pretty much the same the world over, I should've said, seeing as the rating systems differs in different places.

At any rate, I find el cheap-o places more interesting.

Nice.....I'm NOT mad at these cats. But my main question is how much is 2 much?

i dont care how much money a person have, sometimes too much is too much. very unnecessary

meow85 said:

that's because they are more interesting. I have to agree with you there.

Speak for yourself. I'm talking about GOOD guitarists.

minneapolisgenius said:

Go 'head be broke and frustrated. Artists are the biggest self centered babies in the world... I speak from my younger days experience my young flower. Things change when your life priorities are not about a damn song. ...maybe real life... real estate...grad school...kids...

Suit your self. I'll be with a rich nerd before a broke "good" musician.
80 percent of the music the industry turns out fails...not to mention the "good" musicians that will never get a whiff of a deal...

i stepped off the box now...

that is a crazy house. too much house for one family. but i do enjoy looking at that pool. the water looks nice.

Phwoar!!

Perhaps we ALL do not. However there are those who are inclined to do so, and I'm not going to judge them for it. I come from a country where people amassed ridiculous amounts of wealth based on the backs of human trafficking (southern slave owners) and later by monopolizing indutries (the robber baron dynasties). In my view that puts us a bit in the "can't see the forest for the tree catagory" and as those who know very well that we have lived in the glass house, really shouldn't throw stones.

As has often been the cycle in history, the wealthy maintain ridiculously sized residences, often losing them at a later time as they become public property and societal structures change/evolve. But since we're in the mood to criticize, shouldn't we also maintain the same level of criticism of the royal family of England, the members of our closest ally? Have you seen the digs THEY keep under warps the world over? And they aren't even used in a state capacity rather than for a connection to tradition, pomp, and circumstance

KatSkrizzle said:

Who said anything about a "broke" good musician?

I personally would rather be with a starving artist than a rich, boring, uncreative type myself though.

The people we are discussing make those "The Fabulous Life Of...." shows about celebrities look like the ghetto by comparison.

The British royals don't have a fraction of what some of these sultans do. Nor do any of the royals from other countries. I've been in the royal palaces in the Netherlands, and know pretty well what most other royals the world over "have" because my brother-in-law and sister-in-law are the personal assistants to the Queen of Holland and the rest of the royal family here. So I get the "inside scoop" on how these people live, because they travel all over the world with them to stay at every palace imaginable.

There IS such a thing as too much.
