Asian American Romance: [asianamericanromance] Re: Being Human

Hi Furvert,

That's nice statement. As to how much is reasonable ? There is no so call reasonable, there is only how much you want, that's it.

You make 25k, anything more is luxurious. My cousin brother living in LA is a billionaire USD, his house is small is simple, no one would see what he is from his house n family. My another cousin brother who is his elder brother is a billionaire NTD, his house is small n simple because his mom prevent him to live more luxurious. First one is half self made coz his capatial of his company is from his mom, his younger brother doesn't work at all. How to make n use money to live what kind of life ? That has no standard at all.

Asia women do have better moral, that's the only thing I could say, I am never against that good moral.
