Its because they have great protection and great health care.

Bloody good thread!

I had the same conversation with my father recently.

Personally I believe that they are getting something 'we' are not. It makes perfect sense. You would expect that with so much money and high society living that these people would be over indulging, which doesn't usually add to one's lifespan or looks, unyet these people seem to be going on for a long time.

Look at David Rockerfeller! He's well ito his nineties but doesn't look a day over 65!

What's going on?

Some comic figured it out a long time ago.
Blue food.

Blue food bestows immortality.

They eat blue food.

Blueberries don't count they are not blue. Neither are bluefish.

A lot of elites have died young - Grace Kelly, John Kennedy Snr and Jnr, Princess Diana, Aristotle Onassis's son, Marilyn Monroe, the son of our local elites - and probably a lot more.

No one is out of the reach of the common man, ever.

so someone needs a slap, ask the Italian PM what expensive security is worth. Not a lot, human's are not perfect and mistakes are made.

Misdirection works on us, it also works on their minions..

Would be a good thread if the premise of the OP wasn't total gonads...

Firstly, it has been stated that being rich offers you access to the "best" medical care. This undoubtably helps to some extent, but doesn't confer upon them any sort of immortality. I can cite plenty of examples of the "elite" suffering from (and dying from) serious illness.

As for accidents, well, we're dealing with people who's whole lives are meticulously planned by a whole army of assistants and aides and are then protected around the clock by another army of security personel.

As a result, they are less likely to succumb to "accidents" that us normies do, such as road collisions or slipping down icy steps, although these do happen too. The Queen Mother used to fall over every other week for example and spent alot of time in the hospital for broken bones.

It really isn't that hard to do a little research before opening your mouth. They may be richer and more powerful, but death, illness and accidents happen even to them.
