Mot: -- Stories of Rich Kids getting Karma ~~~
Getting the cold shoulder
A somewhat distant relative of mine spent all of his university years and twenties partying hard with the 100-120K allowance his rich company owning father gave him each year. He would travel the world each year going to Bali, Thailand, Europe, every year Oktoberfest, just rampaging.
At 32 or so he decided to settle in an upscale ski resort area of the US and open a business with his hot gold digger fiance. When he went to transfer his money to his US bank account he noticed it only came to a few thousand dollars.
He angrily asked the bank worker why she hadn’t transferred the entire amount only to be told that that was the entire amount. His father had cut him off without saying anything and he just hadn’t noticed.
Connections aren’t everything
A friend of mine from college whose parents were rich enough to have a multimillion-dollar home in America and in Europe used to s**t on me for saying I was happy to go to whatever medical school I could get into. I ended up getting into my state school and she responded by saying that she could get into that school in a second because her mom has connections in the admissions department, but that she would never bother applying there because it’s not even a good school.
She also made the same claim that her mom could get her into a specific top 20 ranked school. All through college, she had this attitude with me about how even though I was doing better than her in classes, I was going to go to whatever school would take me and she was going to go to her dream school because that’s just how the world works.
I checked up on her on Facebook this year and… she’s not exactly at her dream school. It turns out she is at her state medical school which is actually significantly lower ranked than the one she was making fun of me for attending.
On your bike, kid
The local rich kid had his SUV parked in a no-parking area at a club, a tow truck showed up to tow it away and the kid went ballistic, saying “do you know who my dad is” etc. to the driver.
After a minute or two of this, the passenger got out of the tow truck and turned out to be a full patch Hell’s Angel.
The biker “politely” told him it doesn’t matter who he thinks his family is and the SUV was towed away.
Messing with money
Freshman year of college – the guy across the hall from me is a spoiled rich kid from a big southern city. Old money clearly coming out his a*s. A couple of weeks into the second semester he and a buddy found a chequebook on the sidewalk. Stupid kers decided to write themselves a check and cash it in the bank that the account is in. The teller immediately called the cops and they both got arrested.
We talked the night he got arrested and he laughed and said his dad would “take care of it” and everything would be fine.
That weekend we met his dad as they moved everything out of the dorms since his dumb got expelled. Guess daddy didn’t take care of it.
Punch drunk
A rich scummy injury lawyer’s kid was in my class in high school. He went to college, a mid-size school in the Midwest, and got plastered drunk. The RA said that he had no choice but to write him up for having alcohol in the dorms.
The guy responded by punching 2 RAs, then got the cops called on him and knocked a cop’s tooth out. Long story short: his parents had to drive back six to seven hours after one day to get him and he’s not even allowed to leave the state until his hearing.
Last I heard he’s working at a fast-food establishment.
Mot: Soooo Ya KNows What the ""Wee Folks"" is Thinking - Hmmmmm ~~~
If you of ever spent any amount of time listening to a child talk, it can be a rather interesting experience. They just seem to blurt out whatever is on their mind and their honesty goes along perfectly with their openness. It doesn’t matter what they are saying, they just go ahead and say it and they speak their mind in ways that sometimes take us by surprise. These responses from children are certain to put a smile on your face and let you know why we love them so much.
~~~~~~~~~~
1. A kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She walked around to look at the artwork. As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was.
The girl replied, “I’m drawing a picture of God.”
The teacher paused and said, “But no one knows what God looks like.
Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing the girl replied, “They will in a minute.”
~~~~~~~~~~
2. A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.
The little girl said, ‘When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah.’
The teacher asked, ‘What if Jonah went to hell?’
The little girl replied, ‘Then you ask him.’
~~~~~~~~~~
3. A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five- and six-year-olds.
After explaining the commandment to “honor” thy Father and thy Mother, she asked, “Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?”
Without missing a beat, one little boy (the oldest of a family) answered, “Thou shall not kill.”
~~~~~~~~~~
4. One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast to her brunette head.
She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, “Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?” Her mother replied, “Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white.”
The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said, “Momma, how come ALL of grandma’s hairs are white?”
~~~~~~~~~~
5. A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of blood.
Trying to make the matter clearer, he said, “Now class, if I stood on my head, the blood as you know, would run into it and I should turn red in the face.”
“Yes, sir,” the class said.
“Then why is it that while I am standing upright in an ordinary position the blood doesn’t run into my feet?”
Bobby shouted, “Cause your feet ain’t empty.”

6. Children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Christian school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. Someone had written a note and placed it next to the apples. It read, “Take only one, God is watching.”
Moving through the line, to the other end of the table, was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies.
One little boy wrote his own note and snuck it next to the cookies, “Take all you want, God is watching the apples.”
