Yeah you probably nailed it and i get they are young kids when they get the money. So maybe i should have said im amazed at how many of them arent more properly "looked after". I know that is easier said than done - i have a teenage step son that just shit away his graduation money before attending college and is now calling home for money every other day! So i cannot imagine trying to harness a 21 yr old with millions and the spotlite!

@SS - good for him i liked Springs. Thought he was a decent dude from what i remember ( maybe i remember wrong).
