    They only think they do, until it all comes back on them and they have to pay the price. There's no positive ending for those types.

    Ultimately those who have strong moral codes are happier, longer lived and more successful... perhaps not in terms of money ... but money isn't everything.. Being able to sleep at night, knowing you treat others well is a great feeling..

    If we look at prez's then Trump sure doesn't seem to be a happy person despite all his money and supposed success... whereas Obama seems genuinely warm, happy and successful in terms of having close relationships in his life and that I learn he is now having financial success as well.. that's cool

    True although some say he is evil and awful and shady and sneaky. The Obama haters will hate him with a passion till they die and leave that hate as a legacy for their families. Isn't that wonderful? Thank you for your reply Addb!  :)
