True, but I'll have made sure I'll have left the city behind by then. There's a big house in the middle of Uruguay somewhere with my name on it

Oh absolutely - I wanted to be a racing driver, but now racing drivers are all 16 or 17 and here I am at 33 and old enough to be a racing driver's father. That is kind of a pain, but it hasn't put me off too much. I'm now waiting for the new era in which motor racing is populated by drivers over 40 - it has to come. Actresses can be any age - you should come over here and try out, we're a sucker for the accent and the whole Californian babe thing.

Besides, if you have more money, chances increase greatly that you'll find somebody to love. You know, because of all of your world travels and activities and stuff that you can now pay for? Because of the cosmetic surgery you will have? Because of the confidence that comes with money? |
Indeed - money can't buy you love, but it makes you more lovable
Also I found that even though I'm dirt poor by Western standards, when I travelled around Asia I was automatically incredibly wealthy and had to beat the girls off with a stick. Proof if any were needed that money makes you more attractive.

Hey, by the time we need new knees, hips, hearts, faces etc, we'll be able to go into hospital somewhere and get one without staying overnight. Stuff like that is moving so fast, we may never get old
That's my theory and I'm sticking to it - if it turns out to be crap, I'll be too senile by then to care.
