My bosses brother (also a milionaire) builds and runs dragsters as a hobby. Each one of his engines costs upwards of a quarter million dollars to make... (assuming he does a lot of the work himself). He counts himself lucky if he gets to use the engine for 3 meets. His garage is littered with blown engines, heads and various parts... but the engines that are on the stand being built are truly works of art.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
