Have you heard about the big bank heist in London? One of the suspects is a rich car dealer!

Did you know that the largest robbery of all time was that of the Iraq Central Bank in 2003 . . .now I wonder who got that money? Any guesses?

"The sophisticated robbery is believed to be the largest heist during peacetime. It eclipsed a $70 million theft from the Central Bank in Fortaleza, Brazil in August, a $65 million heist at the Knightsbridge Safe Deposit Center in London in 1987, and a $50 million robbery at the Northern Bank of Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 2004.

But all four were dwarfed by the wartime theft of $900 million in U.S. bills and as much as $100 million worth of euros from the Iraq Central Bank in 2003."

When is it that people say enough is enough. How much money is enough? Why do celebrities take on work, such as commercial work, that deny others a chance? Don't they already make a ton of money. What is happening in our society?
