Besides, isn't it happiness that matters? Mo' money, mo' problems is so true. I was a happier person with less money. Go figure? The more I focus on things other than making money, the happier I am!

I got arrested a couple weeks ago for fighting in a bar, got thrown in the drunk tank with the network admin(TOP guy, so he said) of a major Canadian bank. Guy had red wine all over him. His fiance threw it in his face at some expensive bar in Yaletown after he told her that she has to cut back on spending his money or they can't marry.

Imagine that, top of your game, the most money you've ever made in life, top of the chain at work. Then you meet a woman you love, get engaged, and then she ends up ordering $70 glasses of red wine at your dinner that you intended to tell her to stop spending 3k a week. The guy told me he's living paycheque to paycheque AND she's draining his savings. She doesn't work. Of course, could all be bull, but the guy seemed to know his computers. Long story short, girlfriend threw the wine at him and left, he paid the bill, left, and started SCREAMING in rage in the middle of the street. He didn't think he would be arrested so fast. He dumped his ex girlfriend a year prior and regrets it every minute. Poor guy was crying for hours in the drunk tank, and pleaded with the other guys in there to never dump a good girl for a whore.

Fuck that was a fun night!
