Is Money everything?

And a second DM and potentially a new striker and attacking winger.

Not done lottery winner Colin Weir any good. £170m won and since then divorced and now croaked it at the age of 71

He might have freed himself from an unhappy marriage and died while shagging a 23 year old Latvian brass.

Since I started earning decent money again, my spending doesn’t seem to have changed much from immediately before that point. Clothes, holidays, eating out. It’s about the same. I think I’ve got a level of spending, above which I view it as wasteful; below which life would be far too dull. So as long as I’m in that zone, I’m cool. When I’ve fallen below it, I’ve simply lived beyond my personal means on the assumption things would improve. Which they always have, so far.

I’m ambitious for that lifestyle, but have no real aspiration to go beyond it. I don’t think it would make me any happier. I’m perfectly happy where I am.

Ambition can be a curse.

Why did he call him ‘Robinson’? It’s a wank first name.

Has a certain ring to it

Has a certain ring to it

Sounds like a soft-drink salesman from the West Country in the 1970’s.

Not as wank as his Barley Water middle names; )
