Wow. No empathy here at all. The world can go against you for alot of reasons. I went from millions to pauper to millions to pauper. It happens. It depends on your ethical stance. It depends on other people. It depends on what you fear.

I'm pretty empathetic to people like football players who make millions and go bankrupt because managing money isn't what nature built them to do. They're also not asking to be hedge fund managers. Would you feel comfortable having your high-level security managed by someone who's living hand to mouth and resents us for not paying him more?
