Hard to understand how someone who can have so much wealth, a charmed life of few problems but yet use hard drugs like heroin, cocaine?

A very wealthy lady in the Uk, mother of 4 grown children has been found dead at their London Mansion. Her husband has been arrested in connection with her death. They contributed large amounts of money to charities dealing with drug addiction.

Why? dunno

Wealth doesn't alter the fact that we're all human and have our weaknesses thumbs up

Plus the wealthy can afford to indulge those weaknesses to a greater extent leading to so many of the accidental deaths from overdosing by celebrities/artists/musicians etc.

A slightly different note or tack .When I was married I lived in one of Adelaides poorer suburbs . Drug dealers growers makers etc were often arrested in or around this area .
And I don't mean street pushers .But house renters etc who would grow dope crops inside rented houses or set up meth labs .
Funny thing if the cops caught them they were reported to be not from the poor suburb but the richer Eastern suburbs !!!
So it could seem that some rich people get richer of the misfortune of others !!

Only if you let it control you?
Alcohol is one of the best sleeping drugs you can get, I stoped doing drugs because it interfered with my alcohol intake plus they make me sleepy?

As for tobacco! I keep hearing how bad it is for you but all the people I know who have died supposedly from nicotine related illness were found to have died from asbestos! Related illness by the coroners report,

I had a chest Ex-ray a few years back and my lungs were clear! My rib was broken due to a fall but after thirty years off smoking and not being any sort off heath nut I was fine! The stupid doctor tried the anti smoking lecture still?

don’t get me started on those people who are addicted to nasal spray who have half their face removed because off it?

I couldn’t stop smoking ever and I like a cold beer, but they don’t control my life or do me any harm!

There are a lot off healthier people not out there now, that have died a lot younger than me!

As I say too the kid, your hart is a valve that will only take so much use before it fails? Why reduce that life by exercising or doing stupid things?

You only have the one life so you may as well enjoy it now before it ends!
