    money money money

    5 Live were talking about the lotto this morning - does money bring you happiness etc. Anyway one woman rang in who won 1.5 million and she has never told anyone, not even her husband ! Just think some poor bloke is fighting his way through traffic every morning to earl a living and his wife is sat on 1.5 million - it could be one of you.

    But then again would you tell your other half if you won that much ?

    I wonder if he listens to 5 Live? I think she might have been telling porkies.

      My wife said she wouldn't tell me. She'd buy me a plane, pay off the mortgage but still make me work. She reckons I would become lazy(-er), overweight and an alcoholic.

      She'd be right then.

        But then again perhaps there is something in the womans mindset that delights in depriving a man of his pleasures, dont you think?

        I suspect this story is all too true.

        Back on thread,the more money you have the more happier you are.

        It is right and fitting that a man whom completes his monthly invoice should celebrate the Pleasure of Pure Profit ?


        If you disagree please drop me a note and I will arrange for a funds transfer to my account toute de suite.

          Oh yes, don't believe the lies: money does make you happy, and the more you have of it the happier you get.

          People who have lots and money and are unhappy are mentally ill.

              I prefer the feminine abstract.

              It may be Poetic license, but its how I like to express myself.

              You see Gentlemen how quick the Ladies are to deny us even the simple pleasures of expressing ourselves ?

                However, is there happiness in blowing £8.7m in a year and having £1m left in investments?

                How the hell do you blow £8.7m? I mean, I would buy a LearJet of course and pay for training but the interest alone on the capital and a rental option should pay for the fuel and op costs.

                All I remember is seeing the guy drive around his backyard with his chav mates getting pissed.

                  You mean like grabbing your gonads prior to the vinegar strokes?

                    How much does a Lear Jet cost?

                    Btw, don't forget you'll need a safety pilot...
