Those early days were when a lot of people were making a lot of money. I think there was some thicker skin involved that ignored a lot of perceived or real slights. If you wrap people from head to toe in multiple layers of hundred dollar bills, the morphine-like euphoria induced is a great shield from that bozo in Ottumwa, Iowa who called them a moron 5 minutes ago on a msg board.

Now, with everybody broke, other social and political issues are the only thing left to latch on to. With or without money, I'll probably always be the same pinhead I've always been. But the need to argue if someone calls me on it is less when I'm reading their posts over a lobster w/ vanilla bean sauce at Flitwick Manor in Bedfordshire.

Whoever said "Money doesn't buy happiness" was a complete moron.
