    Default Interview with Billionaire Alki David

    Very good interview this, from England's Sunday Times

    http://business.timesonline.co.uk/to...cle3558739.ece

    Highlight for me was...

    Do you have any credit cards? I have a Gold Mastercard and an Amex Gold. I also have an Amex Black Centurion (an invitation-only card that costs £650 a year). I once financed an entire reality TV show on that card. It cost a couple of hundred thousand euros in all. Some of the money was to pay off a customs fine because we were caught trying to bring a tarantula into Switzerland for the show.

    The best take-out from the article was:
    What is the most important lesson you have learnt about money? That with it comes responsibility.

    The responsibility part is a bagage sometimes. But, well, if you want to have advantages you will need give something else back also.

    Oh, man, I LOVED this interview.

    My fave part?

    Are you financially better off than your parents?

    My father’s dead, so I have more money than him.
