A friend of mine’s only son made a fortune in the crash of 2008 — all taxpayer’s money. One day she was moaning about how hard dear David had to work to grow his windfall. I suggested he work for one month on the night shift at a nursing home and try to live on the salary if he wanted to see what hard work really was. There’s no sense of reality or proportion with the rich and Kay told me David worked ten hours a day and had ongoing personnel problems as if this was somehow comproble.
