Do you have extra extra extra money and you do not know what to do with them?
I just read this (latest) news:
Sold car model 1884, is believed to be the oldest car still works in the world, at a price reached a record 4.62 million dollars in the auction house, Pennsylvania on Friday.
According to U.S. media that the car of the French type (De Dion Bouton and Thripardo de a. Du) working on the steam sold for 4.62 million dollars, auction.

I wonder if the person who bought it is living in our world? I do not mean that he is breathing.. I mean if he is living in this world. Does he look beyond the fence of his house and garden. Does he know how many countries are going under with their economic suffering and many jobs lost and people living on debts.
What came to mind is not what your country can do to you but what you can do to your country. I would like to add her : It is not what money can do to you it is what you can do with your money.
I am hoping and praying that this person can open his eyes and help the people who are dying of hunger every were in the world.
Helping others will help you, you will claim back your humanity by feeling with others whom suffering and ashamed of extending their hands for charity.
No excuse for spending this amount of money on a thing no matter what this thing is, as long as there is one human who is in need ( and that include, hunger, thirst, medical treatment, jobless...etc.) in this world.
Why would some one pay twice the price that was expected to be sold for? Extra Extra Extra money?
I hope this person is not a Muslim, because I do not know what he will answer when he is questions: what did you do with your money? at the day of Judgment. Even if he did so will with the rest of his money there is no good reason to wast any of it by buying the car while there are more human suffering.
What is your opinion on this?
