i call all my friends after 20 years of no contact and invite them to visit me at my house, which is a farm in the middle of nowhere. they approach the farm gates and i appear looking like this
..go on…….
i lead you into the barn where i live and offer you snacks and refreshments. it’s a bowl of minnows and 3 caprisun pouches
accept the capri sun, cautiously refuse the minnows
i tell you that it’s fine, leaves more for me, but you can tell im a little hurt. we watch cutthroat kitchen in silence, i seem to be attempting to drink my caprisun through my gas mask, but im failing miserably. you say nothing.
i say nothing
at one point i go into a shed and bring out more caprisun pouches and a single triscuit for you
I dont think people really understand how vastly different somone being a millionaire is from someone being a billionaire. People have this idea that its basically the same thing but billionaires are just normal rich people who can afford more stuff than millionaires when a billionaire is a completely different breed. To put it in perspective 1 million seconds is almost 12 days while 1 billion seconds is 31 years. the difference between a millionaire and a billionaire is the difference between 12 days and 31 years
a millionaire can afford a nice lakeshore house and a boat to go with it. a billionaire can afford a populated island and a private army.
