On living happily ever after.

I don't feel sorry for Curt Schilling. For losing the $50 million he made as a major league baseball pitcher. He invested all of his money in a video game business. In an effort to expand his fortune. And ended up losing all of it. Thing is, Schilling wasn't satisfied with a mere $50 million. On which he could have easily lived. He wanted more and more and more. Which is the American capitalist way. Some rich people are never rich enough. They have an insatiable appetite for limitless amounts of money. But who knows? Maybe Schilling will discover that life is better with only a few bucks in his pocket. He may learn to focus on other kinds of riches. And live happily ever after. --Jim Broede
