“Rich” is relative

I’m not talking about your rich Uncle Thadius.

I’m talking about how the richest king in the Middle Ages was poorer than almost any contemporary American.

I would never give up the advanced health care, cialis canada medical plane travel, viagra canada cialis automobiles, cialis movies, TIVO, and Macintosh computer, that come with my modern middle-class existence for the life of the world’s richest man ‚Äì Andrew Carnegie ‚Äì of 150 years ago.
