Of course the peasants are revolting, they stink on ice.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I am thrilled that I already am a complete cunt.

Well I'm halfway to wealthy.

Re: Research: Wealth makes you a douchebag.
Does it make people douchebags, or does it only give people free rein to be the douchebag they've harboured all their lives while living poor with the general populace where being a douchebag would land them a slap and put them back into check?

Do you suppose there's a homunculus-type douchebag in us all, just waiting to be released?

All seriousness aside, I don't think I would become a douchebag were I to win the lottery. I wouldn't even tell anyone. I'd just ease out of sight with a plausible excuse and carry on without fucking with people at all.

I'd make myself comfortable and then give most of it away to charity.

Re: Research: Wealth makes you a douchebag.
Me too. Hell, I'd give it all to charity, since charity begins at home and I'd have several fuck-off amazing homes. Get those poor people out of my sight I'm trying to nosh a little beluga here.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Re: Research: Wealth makes you a douchebag.
If I won substantial Euromillions I would try my hand at being a nature and science documentary producer (as in I'll front the money, to lazy to actually make them), conservationist, try tap the green market, make an extensive, interactive, online Darwinian tree-of-life with features for professionals and general public alike, and try be all around trendy, friendly multi-millionaire everyone loves.
Because I have a massive empty void inside me which needs a landfill's worth of love to sate.

I think I'd make it my mission to expose how douchebaggy it is to own 10 cars and 5 mansions while kids are still hungry and homeless.

Funnily enough, while delivering pizzas, I found that the local council estates generally tipped much higher than more well-to-do areas of Chester...University students never tipped. At least, not in my experience.

Re: Research: Wealth makes you a douchebag.
Speaking of charity. I think I'd set up a trust thingy where all the dividends go to a charity. So it would be a sustainable charity until the world implodes.
