A buddy of mine is very wealthy and his stereo is a boom box, I needled him in the past about that and he just says that is all he really needs.
He owns several high end cars, the usual suspects. We were out in one of the Ferraris and got caught in a traffic jam. The guy in the next lane is staring at the car so I say "Hey, how you doin'?". He comes back with (sneeringly) "Better than you are!". So I ask "Why is that?". He replies "Because I'm ahead of you and your half million dollar car!" And he was...going 2 mph in his Camry he had me by a bumper. I just smiled.
He may have been beat to much as a pup.
Envy is a terrible vice.
