    His statement is a little crude

    But really its not far off from an APPROPRIATE opposite reaction to Rinehart's comment.

    You can EASILY imply that she's saying people who drink and smoke and socialize a lot are loser slackers who don't succeed financially. (Just she didnt say "slacker".) Is that the ONLY way people DONT make lots of money in life? And are all millionaires from the BUSINESS world?

    And he's saying there's bozos that have money that can build more money from that money. (and CROOKS)

    People credit Paris Hilton for being "smart" and knowing how to "work the system" to profit off her looks. Credit for finding those exploits. Yes there's not a "monopoly" on being slutty celebutantes. But I know a couple people who've been close enough to Paris who've said up close she truly is as dumb as a box of hammers.

    I was the smartest most humble non drinking non sociable worker in my last job. They didnt like that i didnt fit in. They FAVORED the drinkers and sociable types. So I'm not there anymore. I know Rinhart is basically saying "DONT SIT ON YOUR ASS - MAKE IT HAPPEN". But Rinehart is actually still trying to take down other MILLIONAIRES too to add to her BILLIONS

    What she says about Australia is right though. It's becoming way too expensive to do business there. That's why a lot of the O&G companies there are scaling back their projects there in light of the big find in Africa. They can get oil and gas out much cheaper there.

    It may be fact but it doesn't make it right. It's borderline slavery and as a responsible human you shouldn't just accept that. Human decency.

    I actually agree with this, manufacturing jobs will always go to the place with the cheapest labor cost. It's up to us to stay ahead and adjust.
