Rich and poorer

Raine and I was having a conversation about a rich Singaporean billionaire who has the whole of a 11-storey condominium for his family of three.

Raine made this observation.
"Well, the poor only have one worry - the lack of money and they are easily made happier by money. Any amount of money. The rich will have problems which cannot be solved by having more money."

How true is that. Imagine what a dollar means to the old man who trudged around Chinatown on one leg, selling packets of tissue paper. I guess I was too pragmatic then. I had no need at that moment, so I didn't buy any. The old man took it in his stride. Gave Gracie a big toothless smile and made funny noisy, as he hobbled by.
