Well that is the idea. To become rich and famous and die with the most toys.
I suspect we all die the same. Peaceful, with a big smile on our face thinking about how nice it is going to be meeting all our friends in hell and saying, "I told you so, you were no better than I, you ----------."
I suspect when I get to the pearly gates, (all programmers get the interview, but not necessarily the position.), I will see Bill Gates beatifically smiling and he will say, "where do you want to go today?" I know what I will want to say at that time.
But Lo! God will interject and say.. "not so fast, I know what you are thinking.. just what is he doing here? He is here for reassurance. If you reflect for a moment my son, when you see this man beside me, you will realize that you have already been through hell."
