I get the feeling he meant to put a "not" in there somewhere.
As others have pointed out, it would have been interesting to hear how he lost all his wealth, but maybe that story is too embarrassing to tell.
After all, it takes quite an accomplishment to waste all your money from a "set for life" -type of situation.
- gaius 18y agomaybe that story is too embarrassing to tell Doesn't have to be one single thing. It's easy to fall into an expensive lifestyle without really even noticing how much you're spending. You start eating out more at nicer places, You start flying business or first class. You get cabs more. You buy tickets to events that you might want to go to but then don't (e.g. you are buying the option to go if you feel like it on the day). You upgrade/replace your phone, your computer, your TV more often. It all adds up then you look back and think wow. :-/
