That's a pretty good quote, Kevin.
Here's another one from Seven Years in Tibet, possibly the only reason I remember that movie..
Dalai Lama: We have a saying in Tibet: If a problem can be solved there is no use worrying about it. If it can't be solved, worrying will do no good.
Speaking of moments. Isn't this Big Announcement time?

I heard ABP and the US Open are getting married..
Shhh.. don't tell anyone! :wink:
You know, it's like a marriage. Here you are, going through your day-to-day, figuring the major issue in your life is purses and pay-outs. You maybe don't think you have it all or everything is great, but at least you think you know where the problems are.
When all of a sudden you learn it's really all about keeping track of entries.
Just like a marriage.

I'm not telling you how to think. That's the Dali lama's biz.
I will tell you this (which I'm sure you already know). If you perceive that you are in a trap, then you are in a trap.
All the best
Kevin
i was in that trap 10 years ago, i collapsed in South Coast Plaza right after I bought a Lambo for $375,000 one afternoon in 02 or 03, I think 03. I been out of that trap for years, many many years. I know a guy who is in that trap(worse than I was) its a bad spot, the $$$ addiction is bad as dope or worse, you cant get enough and your chasing the next million, even when they come every month it's not fast enough. It looks good from the outside, but it was hell. nobody believes it that aint done it, they think $$$ cures problems, it just solves common problens like rent, food etc then new problems you never hearsd of appear(rich people problems) it aint what people think, 99.9% of the time. Some people are smart enough to avoid it, I wasnt probably cause i grew up with little, i over compensated, dont know i dont go to shrinks and analize this stuff, figure that out on my own over time.
things are good now, i'm happy(except for health problems, but it is what it is)
No one likes to go backwards, whether you go from 50 million to 5 million or $15000 to $1500 it still sucks and is all relative I guess. I was talking with a buddy of mine the other day about street people and how they have less worries then people who actually own things. That statement about the more you own, the more it owns you is very true. More money, more things, more problems and more worries about keeping it and losing it. I guess the best thing to stay positive is to think of where you were years back and how you at this point in your life are probably better off then you imagined way back then. You are blessed. :wink:
am i in a time-warp? what day is it? was there a blue moon last night?

Do you have a link for that listing?
While real estate has dropped in Vegas I once in a while take a look at properties there and have not seen anything like a former million dollar penthouse in the Trump Towers for 125k.
