In this life, dont be boastful about finding your "happiness" with a rich guy, (most of the time this "rich guys" got no look but got lots of $$) there is nth to be proud of.. u didnt win anything, there was never a competition, its all in your mind.. and the prize u think u won, be careful it bite the last owner! So please, don't be such a nasty ngada2 dumb bitch here. #stayhumble if you claim ur life is way better than us, den good for u! Be gratefull, be thankful. All these wealthy-ness u been experiencing since u been married or remarried is nth but a loan frm Allah. So dont be too damn arrogant. Cause,anytime, with a click of a finger, God can take eveything away from ur life. So just dont ever forget where u come from!
