Do you think that rich people can cry too? as poor people?

marianna45 @marianna45 (1399) • Romania 4 May 10

Rich people who have money can have reasons to cry? Somebody can buy the happiness with money ? Can money replace all what somebody need to be happy?

Tiger Woods! Addiction or Just Man Behaving Badly??

artistry @artistry (4151) • United States 8 Dec 09

Do you think Tiger has an addiction, now that news reports claim that there may have been 6 to 10 women involved in affairs with him, maybe up to 20? Or is it just a case of very bad behavior on his part?
