Hardware store on Mott Street, It reminds me of a title published in The New York Post, not too long ago, “Son forces Society Queen to live on peas and porridge
in dilapidated Park Avenue duplex.” Makes you realize that shit is just as potent on every front. Where do you hide? All the swag and special treatment, what’s the
point any more? Get a non-celebrity job and enjoy all the boring privacy they desire. When you think of the millions of displaced people who want to relate to the
rich and famous, I say, Hooray for the rich people exhausting themselves with the poor people’s activities. Who will be a star then? Who will shine then? Someone
always needs to shine. The public always looks for the next best thing. We all would miss the busloads of bimbos. Is it all about the sacrifices we make? I am
always surprised at how generous nature can be, it takes its time, it doesn’t rush; until one day it will just turn around and say I am no more, I have nothing left to
give. It is said that investors get rich by being patient. Patience as Sacrifice. All sorts of recipes. Turn almost any common man into a common millionaire. All you
have to do is introduce the person who needs cash to someone who has cash to give. Do you know anyone that needs Cash?
