Just venting some steam!

Flame me if you want but I'm pissed off.
I'm posting this in my favourite forum, I'm dam proud od my bird & I've never seen 1 like it in OZ. It ain't cheap to own a car like this in OZ I've spent 30k! on it & its just stock + a GFX kit.
Anyway I belong to the Pontiac club of Australia which lists all the members & their cars. I needed some info so I rang this guy who had A 91 bird (mines 92) anyway this guy has 14 cars! Rollsroyces, Ferrari,Bmw etc etc. He told me he & his mates just hired an airstrip just to see who could do the biggest burnout in their Rollers. DAM! I wish I was RICH!
thanks for the vent

Tell me about it! That guy should be forced to sell his cars and donate the proceeds to charity. Yeah, that's it; redistribute the wealth. That'll solve the problems of the world.

Go socialism!

What has feeding the hungry, clothing the naked and housing the homeless got to do with socialism???

Buddy, if you've got enough money to put 14 cars in your garage but don't think that is obscene with hundreds of millions of your fellow human being on the verge of starvation, then you are EVIL!!!

And Mark, what is you "LOL" supposed to mean??? Or are you just another greedy pinhead who doesn't care about anything more than a bunch of cars in your garage?

I don't care how much money someone has... theres no way they can solve all the world's poverty problems. He earned his money, let him enjoy it. What happens if he donates say $5 million to a particular country to fight poverty. Then what happens? Are you gonna complain that he has to donate $5 million to EVERY country? I'm sure not ALL of his money is spent on cars. He could have donated money to charity, it says nothing about him only buying cars in the post. Its his money, if he wants to buy 14 cars, let him. I know if I could afford a bunch of exotic cars I certainly would buy some.
