Many years ago I went to a buddies house. He was a retired Army Col, and then retired from the commercial real estate business. He lived in an older house, only because he did not want to move. He had more money than he could spend. He wore a Rolex President, covered in diamonds and heavy with gold. I remember he paid more for it and his or my house cost. Of course he used a large bar of silver as a paperweight.
It was an impressive piece of man jewelry. He knew he would never live long enough to spend the money he had earned, and he was right. He was a great guy, and left his fortune to a nice foundation providing scholarships.
