What comes around
I am a firm believer that karma will come and bite you in the ass every single time - there is no escape. So apart from biting the head off people who do me wrong or disrespect me, i send out nothing but good vibes.
Last night i came to hear of an incident - of which i cannot go into great detail, but it just highlighted in great big neon lights how karma does get you. It involved a bunch of rich kids (early 30s) who act like they are too cool for school. One minute they talk to you and the next minute they act like they don't know you. They have a large group of hanger ons - they want to be friends with these rich folks. I know a gold digga who was so desperate to make friends with them that she used work as a means to get to know them personally.
Anyways, long story short - they are getting kicked out the country. Enough said.
This city is full of nouveau rich and over night millionaires. Ladies and gentlemen, money doesn't buy you class and what's here today will be gone tomorrow. Just because you suddenly have the choice to buy more, does not mean you treat people like crap and neither does it mean you are better than anyone else. And please do not suddenly start talking like daddy sent you to a Swiss Finishing school.
I was telling a nouveau rich acquaintance about how i played cupid with a good friend of mine and she will be marrying him soon. The first question she asked;
"what does he do"
me "he is a taxi driver from london"
her "remind me not to ask you for help when it comes to match making anyone!"
Fact of the matter is, even though my friend has just been made redundant for the second time, she is one of the happiest people i know, and all the money in the world will not buy miss nouveau rich even a fraction of the happiness of my friend.

Well said.
One question, do you feel there is any thing wrong with being financially rich?
no not at all. It's the attitude which comes with it, particularly the newly rich.
sounds like someone is jealous!
:-) i can see why you'd think that, but daddy did send me to a posh school.
I thought it was a great post myself and totally see your point. The lesson stands no matter what country you're in, but it's particularly relevant for Dubai.
