I used to look at the guy who owned a big house and driving a new Lexus or BMW as 'rich'. Now, I shake my head, knowing he's most likely working 2 jobs and struggling to make payments, just to try to impress people. |
Oh how I miss that game of keeping up with the Jones's, what a fucked up little head game that is.........
