Have you ever dramed about being rich--I mean filthy, obscenely, and disgustingly rich? I would imagine most of us have had those dreams. In our moments of grandiose day dreaming, perhaps we have sanctimoniously thought, "Some day when I have eleventy billion dollars, I will help everyone in the whole wide world. No one will ever go hungry again, and we will all fly to Hawaii for a fun vacation. I will pay off everyone's bills, and we will all live in mansions with maids, butlers, and big screen TV's in every room. We will sit by the pool and drink lemonade all day long and nobody will bug us. That's what I will do when I have eleventy billions dollars! Yes, when I have eleventy billion dollars, I will make sure everyone has a new red car, and we will all go to the movies and then fly to Paris for lunch. In the meantime, however, I will buy lunch for a friend and gas for a stranger's car. I will buy a few groceries for a family in need and slip someone $20 for diapers.
Then when that day finally comes and I have eleventy billion dollars, I know what I will do. I will make cookies with my grandchildren. I will chat with my children on the phone. I will go for a stroll with my husband and listen to him sing. And most importantly, I will day dream about what I will do with the rest of my money. Why, I feel rich already!
