          7 figures? as in over £1 million? Perhaps you feel poor because most of it would have to be paid in tax?

          Also please tell me what you did to get to that figure - I think I aught to change career path. I can tell you do SAS but please send me some more info.

            Because all those 7 figures are 0.

                You feel poor because, although you have a lot of money in the bank you are a lacking in the currency of life and love. Poor people feel rich as they embrace life, enjoy it and live it to the full whereas you, good sir, are a cretin.

                    Just what I was thinking - wealth and money does not equate to happiness. Some of the happiest people I have met are not well off at all....
