I mean, I obviously do have a materialistic side to me, I think everyone does to a certain degree, it's hard not too in this society, but I don't see why for some people this is the only aim in life.

Sorry if I spoiled an innocent thread with my ranting. :p

I think this has the makings of an interesting discussion! I admire Akira's principles... but wait till you're middle aged with still 10 years mortgage payments and a daughter wanting to go to uni (abroad even! silly ****! ) and a wife who's business is only just breaking even, I wonder if you'd change? I wouldn't really change any of it, the love & challenges they've brought me is beyond any price, but the fantasy of someone offering you money to do something outrageous is sure interesting! I'd want it in English pounds though! ;)
