    oh dear: I am such a failure :(

    Today I turned 30 years old and it is now can't be denied that I failed to make a million before I am 30

    Unless I use fine print to qualify that it was meant to be million in rubles

      Don't worry about it...the first thirty years are for learning and preparing for real life...the second thrity years are for living and enjoying life...and the last 3o years are for fishing and preparing for death

      P.s. Having also recently been through the '30' thing, I can empathise...its not a great place to be!

            Yes, you're a failure, I'd made my first million whilst still at prep school. tulip, even got my picture in the papers with some rock star about which parts of the RAFs new aeroplane our taxes had paid for.

                  To clarify...

                  1) "I'd made my first million whilst still at prep school"
                  [collected a million milk bottle tops for the Blue Peter appeal]

                  2) "even got my picture in the papers with some rock star"
                  [The "rock star" being Django Duff, "the Paganini of the washboard"]

                  3) "which parts of the RAFs new aeroplane our taxes had paid for"
                  [your gran's old aluminium pans made a cup-holder for a Spitfire]

                  You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

                    "A DONCASTER protester has claimed the alley gates are to blame for a 33 per cent increase in crime figures in part of the borough. But Threaded's Brother's campaign has been slammed by his neighbours in Nether Hall, who support the gates and fear his activities may delay their installation in other areas. He obtained statistics from South Yorkshire Police under the Freedom of Information Act, which show total offences in Balby jumped from 2,408 in 2003-4 to 3,239 in 2004-5."
