Whenever an extremely wealthy person dies, this always comes to my mind, How much do you need ? End of the day, your shroud still has no pockets. DHL and Fedex still not flying that route.

A Russian parable, told by Tolstoy no less : How Much Do We Need ?

The protagonist of the story is a peasant named Pahom, whose wife at the beginning can be heard complaining that they do not own enough land to satisfy them. He states that "if I had plenty of land, I shouldn't fear the Devil himself!". Unbeknownst to him, Satan is present sitting behind the stove and listening. Satan abruptly accepts his challenge and also tells that he would give Pahom more land and then snatch everything from him. A short amount of time later, a landlady in the village decides to sell her estate, and the peasants of the village buy as much of that land as they can. Pahom himself purchases some land, and by working off the extra land is able to repay his debts and live a more comfortable life.

A good day for Russia and Russians. Bloodsuckers like him, beggered the Russians and starved young children during the 1990s. Surprised that Russian KGB could not get him for more than a decade. I think the most efficient intelligence organization is that of Mossad. They seem to get their objectives quickly and efficiently.

When you broke the law in the East and ran to the West, you will be welcomed commensurate with the loots you brought along. This is ASSYLUM 101.


I find it very disgusting that our governments continue to pander and shelter to shady characters as such.

I think the super rich, think of it as as game (at the expense of everyone else) I think this is their mindset "He who dies with the most toys-WINS" I don't understand it.
