It's the Little Differences: Trust Fund Babies

Defined in the urban dictionary as a “young person whose parents are wealthy and have set up a trust for their son or daughter. The trust fund ensures that the child will be taken care of financially for life.” Paris Hilton is a prime example.

I am sure trust fund babies are everywhere, but the abundance in San Francisco is beyond belief.

Oh Belinda

I am really trying hard to like that woman, but it’s not working.

The world needs more successful women in business and politics. No doubt. The double standard she experienced during her short political career was despicable. She stood up to Harper for what she believes in and that’s admirable (although I presume that a dangling cabinet position influenced her decision a little. Just a little, of course.)


I still don’t like her. She reminds me of Paris Hilton.

Annoyance #1: She dropped out of university in her first year. Too much effort, Belinda? You mean you can’t buy yourself a university degree???

Annoyance #2: How many twenty-two years old with a high school diploma become member of a twenty billion dollar company’s board of directors? Without family connections, my guess is none. As Warren Buffet would say, she is part of the Lucky Sperm Club.

Let’s put it that way, I have a lot more respect for successful Average Sperm Club members than successful Lucky Sperm Club members. Maybe she is exceptional at what she does, who knows? The fact is that there are millions of intelligent, hard-working people who excel at what they do. It takes them years to climb the corporate ladder while Belinda Stronach rode the private elevator next to it.
