Show me a person who can't afford to go to the dentist and I'll show you a person who is spending his money on beer, cigarettes or some other such thing that should NOT be a priority for consumption in his or her life. And after you weed out the 99 of 100 "poor" people that the above description applies to and you find the actual 1 of 100 that cannot genuinely afford the dentist, I would suggest to you that there are 1,000 dentists within a 50-mile radius of that person who will be more than happy to do pro bono work for that deserving person if they truly need it (and that's assuming there isn't a social program by the government that will pay for it). > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Vaj <vajranatha@> wrote: > > > > > > On Feb 11, 2006, at 10:47 AM, authfriend wrote: > > > > > A minister of my acquaintance says there are two ways > > > to be wealthy: One is to have a lot of money, the other > > > is to have few needs. > > > > Yep, "live simply". > > > ------------------------ Yahoo!
