Accumulation of wealth is a foundational activity in pretty much all human communities, though admittedly criteria for measuring wealth vary widely.

Once I finally realized this, I started to overcome my resentment of wealth and the people who have it. And I felt better about acquiring a bit for myself.

I suspect a guy like Ernie Shavers recognizes a single stray punch could end it all for him, at that gives him a certain "let's do all we can before we're dead" perspective. I don't share this view but I get where it comes from.

Thanks Annie. To me, money is energy (but I'm more woo woo than you). Sorry about the boom and your glasses! Glad you're ok.
