This world is all about the have’s and the have-nots. There are those who have made oodles of money dripping from their big fat eardrums and all at the expense of us common, ordinary types. Oh yes, they have pilfered and sucked us dry as a bone of our very lifeblood, like some old oil derrick.
The title of this chapter, represents just that, it’s those people who have something tangible yet have zero character. They lack in the areas where you wish they thrived. It’s not uncommon for families throughout the USA to hide out in their big castles, and never make a red carpet appearance to the rest of us ordinary humanoids.
It’s all about living a moderate existence. So if you’re wanting longevity of life think in small doses and not some cataclysmic over the top extravaganza, then buy a Prius. Moderation is all about living within your means. Moderation is also found in our speech, and our abilities to empathize, and even in our distribution of our stuff to those who need. No piece of cheap plastic is ever worth the elimination of people’s obvious needs.
