Do the fortunate appreciate what they have?  Quite a few wealthy individuals definitely relish their good fortune.  They’ll bestow Bentleys on loved ones and have no problem bringing on the bottle service when they’re at the hottest spots in town.  Of course they’ll post the requisite Instagram pictures of their fabulous lives as well – after all, it doesn’t matter if no one’s seen it on social media right? When I saw this editorial of Kate Bosworth in Glamour Mexico November 2017, I thought about the concept of fast fortunes and glittering lifestyles.

I had recently heard about the rapid descent of a wealthy family I know.  While the first generation lived a luxurious existence, it was squandered by the next generation.  One of the kids simply didn’t earn money and simply lived off the money from the family. He had his own kids and also just used maintained a lifestyle paid for by his parents.  It’s no wonder that the money eventually disappeared. It just reminds me that everything is fleeting.  Our toned bodies may soften, our fortunes may dwindle, and our hair may turn gray.  We should not only enjoy, but protect what we have while we have it. Sparkle on!

Have a lovely week!

    That sparkly, beaded jumpsuit in the first photo is pretty cool. And yes, we should enjoy what we have when we have it!

    I really like that quote. It’s good to be reminded how fleeting everything in life is.

    That’s s stunning photoshoot, and I know what you mean about not knowing the value of money, I want to buy my kids everything they want in life, but I know it’s important to teach them about the value of money and working hard for it. Conversations I’m sure I’ll have more as they get older 🙂

    Hope you are having a lovely week so far! The heatwave has gone so I’m enjoying the cooler weather. Even if it’s still a bit humid, at least there is some rain 🙂

    Anything you don’t replenish can fade away! It’s definitely something to think about. Love this photoshoot. That green and orange outfit is amazing.
