Too much money, big party, luxuary car, but no donation to the poor. All of them sucks.
Anyway, would you trade l1nk with me? thanks
They are too old for all that money. Spread the wealth!!
If all of them pay what they suppose to, we wouldn't be this poor - Sad!!!
One thing I notice from the list you put up is cigarettes = good money. Looking on the bright side, if they are not making cigarettes, a lot of money would have went by Philip Morris, BAT, JTI, etc.
