Old habits are hard to break.
I'm forecasting that I'll be leaving some money on the table when I leave this game. It isn't that I really want to but then again I don't know how I would want to change my life not to have any money at the end. So I'll be leaving it to some charities.

Agreed about spending down one's wealth A bit off topic but I am noticing more and more westerners throwing money around and over tipping here in the Kingdom of Thailand. Some morons are even tipping the clerks at the ubiquitious 7-11 stores here. Most of these guys are "two week millionaires" that probably aren't that well off financially speaking. Sure, its their money but I doubt that most of them will ER anytime soon
