I wonder if he's told this to Oprah, Steven Spielberg, George Soros, Sean Penn and the rest of the liberal douchebags that refer to themselves as "limosine liberals"?

Himself is a millionaire.... fucking hypocrite.

talk is cheap; I will believe in my fellow citizens when owebama is voted out in 2012. Do your duty seniors, this guy wants to kill us off early.

He is such a wonderful judge of when you've made enough money, yet this illiterate just can't comprehend when he has SPENT enough of our money.

@EGarrett01 That's true, the bank uses that money to loan out to others, then they charge interest on the loaned money. It's funny that your so supportive of your banks loaning out money, your entire economic meltdown was caused by defaults on loans. Your whole system is flawed, and your trying to validate it by saying, "well, rich people do this and that for the ecomony, blah, blah, blah" I'm just one of those people who don't agree with authoritarian dictatorships like the USofA.

@mattdd05

This response here (99.99% of billionaires won't spend blahblah) just shows your true ignorance. They invest the money they don't spend, idiot. Even when it's sitting in the bank it ends up loaned out to entrepreneurs or others...in much more efficient fashion then when the government does it. It's not about spending the money, which shows you know shit and I hope you don't vote.

@mattdd05

A completely worthless response that shows no understanding of what I said.

@EGarrett01 Saying businesses helps the economy is like saying eating helps you feel full. It's not only obvious but it is redundant, the economy is business. Their profits do go to lobbyists/campaigns, that's why politics is always interested in business and not in morality or making the country better for the citizens. I can see why you like businesses, some people like being slaves to their job, working to pay the bills, so they can brag about how much things they have. Suit yourself.

@mattdd05

Wrong. Running a huge company is hard work. They don't shut it down because they INVEST the extra money in new businesses or banks (creating jobs), build wealth for their children (creating wealth for the future) or give it to causes they believe in (and not lobbyists). These all help society. Much more so than the government taking it and throwing it around willy-nilly. Why don't you do some research about business spending vs government spending and which helps the economy more.

[mattdd05]

@EGarrett01 Eventually you get to a point where you will never feasibly run out of money, no matter how carefree you spend. Since money is not infinite, neither is life-span, so yes there is actually "enough money" to buy whatever you want. any money after that is just collecting dust. But people still don't shut down their company, for other reasons than money; because of power, passion, enjoyment, many reasons, money is just a trophy when your rich, you don't have to worry about running out.

@EGarrett01 What your trying to say is that there is no such thing as enough money? But why not? I would safely say 99.99% of billionaires will never spend their net worth in their lifetime. If you calculate eating,living,cleaning,enterta­inment,transportation,travelli­ng expenses for an entire lifetime it will not add up to even 1 billion.. The thing is, we do not live in a fantasy world, where there is an infinite amount of time to spend, and an unlimited amount of resources and money.
