Ah, money

I like this article about Daniel Handler, a novelist, and his recent essays on money. Daniel also writes under the pen name Lemony Snicket.

Here's the online NY Times article linked to in the article.

He talks openly about having money because of his success and why is he supposed to hide the fact that he has money. Estimating he'd get paid $1200 to write an essay to contribute to the anthology "Money Changes Everything," he buys an $1200 bottle of wine then discusses it with friends and invites his "brokest" friends over to drink it. He asks the good questions about what is expensive, what is giving a lot of money away, how should you react when everyone knows you're rich?

Good to ask...
