1. If it was only as easy as getting in shape...

Still, it might explain any number of things...

But apart from one's weight, what can one change - regardless of status?

2. Money. n/t

3. Then look at the media pundits who say money doesn't make any difference to happiness,

often jumping on the latest piece of garbage celebrity's stunt suicide or rehab visit just to get more media attention and money, ironically. We should otherwise consider ourselves fortunate that so few can't relate to Brit, Linds, Jess, Owie, and the rest...

If only everyone of non-celebrity status was so lucky, we'd all be rich.

4. More options

As far as what to spend money on, what lifestyle to live, and what sort of activities/career to pursue.

6. Matthew 19 verse 24

Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

republicans don't read their Bibles.

8. I wonder why...

7. I thought the article would be about prison sentences

The phrase "about 30 years" applies to that too, oddly enough.
