What I want to know is how they got together in the first place. Take care of the pence, and the pounds will take care of themselves. Easy come, easy go. Put not your trust in money, but put your money in trust. Where large sums of money are concerned, it is advisable to trust nobody.

You don't seem to realise that a poor person who is unhappy is in a better position than a rich person who is unhappy.
