Well....

I am happy that the people in the article have hit gold. But lets face it, they are only a few lucky ones and most of the staff need to work very very hard to make a living.

What the article doesn't tell you is how much they actually had to do to make a living. I mean 12 legs on a day, that is just inhumane, not to mention in violation of any work and rest regulation that I know of.

There are other things in life then becoming a millonair. If you have that much money and take once a year a cheap holiday to Las Vegas, well that may cut it for him, but sounds like no fun at all to me. I would rather have a bit less money and a bit more time to enjoy my little money with family and friends. But maybe that's just me.

Offcourse there is a big difference between work attitude in the US and Europe. It seems that we go more and more in their direction though with our cutting salary, no workers rights, sort it out yourself attitudes. Unless offcourse you are willing to work day and night and get the extra money bonus...

There is more to life then the collection of money and wealth!!!
