[QUOTE="TedG954, post: 149938, member: 9701"] And last, but certainly a billion miles from least..... the wealthiest man to ever walk the earth. John D. Rockefeller was a native of Cleveland. His oil fields originated just east of where he is buried.[ATTACH=CONFIG]37079[/ATTACH] The lesser Rockefellers are buried around him. [ATTACH=CONFIG]37080[/ATTACH] Rockefeller's obelisk is 70 feet high. In terms of today's dollars, John D. was worth in excess of 300 billion dollars. Yep. 300 billion. Bill Gates hasn't reached 70 billion. I think there's a lesson here. [ATTACH=CONFIG]37082[/ATTACH] No matter how much you have, billions of dollars, a D4, or a meager wage and a D40, we all end up in the same state. I guess we should use what we've been blessed with and be happy. [/QUOTE]
