I do agree with you that some rich people are like this. But I would also point out people like oprah winfrey, bill gates who have done wonders for the poor in not only their own countries but countries from around the world. I am also sure that there are very rich people in saudi and qatar that help out the poor in different ways.

I do understand what u mean abut lavish spending. But what I don't understand! we are out buying the latest knock off of these artist simply because we can not afford to buy the original one. So, does that mean that if we become rich enough that we will buy these lavish things? I also think the abaya is a fashionable piece of garment. I been to tunis, morocco, egypt, kenya, gambia, senegal I seen many variations of the abaya and I could tell which ones were expensive and which were common/not so expensive. The abaya is pretty much the same of any other piece of clothing you ware it for the value of it so what is wrong with making it look stylish.

I am always excited to go to sleep! In anticipation of the new experience I will find awaiting me.
