Rules of the rich
Have you noticed that sometimes rich people do really stupid things with their money? And that being rich does not mean you automatically have nice stuff? I was walking Digby through a fancy subdivision today and noticed the ugliest curtains in this really big, nice (most certainly expensive) house. How unfair is that? These people could have the coolest window treatment! And what do they pick? Some frumpy flowery pattern covering 3/4ers of the window - starting about 30 cms lower than the actual frame.
See, it only confirms that I should be rich. I have excellent taste. Something like this could never happen to me. If I was rich, I would totally live up to the expectation. I'd have a nice house with beautiful interior and exterior.
Just so you know, if I ever become rich, I will totally deserve it ;).
Well, Dinka, that's good to know. If you ever become rich, I will rest assured that you will not only deserve it, but use it wisely. :-)
Personally, I think some people in fancy houses can't even afford those houses at all. Then it comes to window dressings and they can't afford that extra 30 cms of fabric...
If I get rich, I, too, will use it well and have a beautiful home. Then I will anonymously mail window dressings around the country to those in need. :-)
I always think the same thing. I have a neighbor who has a sister with a great deal of land (so they say). He was bragging that she is building a race track in her back yeard for go carts. My thought is "how dumb is that?" I would have yard for the kids to roam free and maybe garden and maybe some animals for them to take care of. But that is me...
:-))) and if I was rich I would just take care that there are no ugly curtains and windows in the whole world ... weißt eh, Dinka, so wie Hader sagt: Eine Topfpflanze für jeden Bunker, bei mir wäre es ein schöner Vorhang für jedes Fenster :-)))) (sorry about the language, Maryanne and Pansy Moss, but this only functions in german) am I not a really nice person and don't I really deserve to be rich? :-)))
