I have an aunt with more money than God... she always had more than anyone and lorded it over everyone. She was above all of us and looked down on anyone who didn't have what SHE had and worse, who didn't WANT or CARE ABOUT what she had. I guess we were not oooohing and ahhhing over her possessions and whatever, the way she wanted and we were not respectfully envious about her and her life.

Most of us just tolerated her and couldn't respect her for her conduct. Really, she was just pathetic.

In the end she lived and died alone.

Bottom line... these BS celebrities think we are not sufficiently envious and respectful of them .... period. In fact we only laugh at them.

My brother had a friend who was a Middle Manager for an IT firm in Boston. He had a bunch of people working for him and had a good education, MBA type from a good school.

On night my brother and I were out boozing with him and I mentioned that I a college dropout at the time had 140 people working for me.

I never saw a more shocked look any face in my life, “You have that many people working for you?”

Years later he was fired from his job and committed suicide. My brother told me that he could not take what he saw as rejection.
