Well, it’s been a long time coming and the first weekend has finally arrived. The flight over to the private airfield was a pleasant one as is usually it tends to be. The nuts had just that right amount of salt, the baked goods were absolutely as fresh as the fruit was. Even the pilot seemed to make an extra smooth landing, everything seemed to be going your way.
Not being familiar with the lay of the land, or the roads, it was decided to have a chartered limo waiting. This is wise isn’t it, sure it is, after all you haven’t had a chance to stop by the local luxury SUV dealer. You’ve heard it does snow a few times a year here.
The kids have been asking all year when will it be ready, isn’t ready yet, tell ‘em to hurry up dad! The pictures sent by the builder were nice, but they simply couldn’t do justice to the image of your remote rustic cabin in the mountains. You arrive, unpack the provisions, yes, there is even kindled wood and log ready to light in the stone fireplace.
It’s now 8 pm and the kids are asking, hey dad, how do I check my email ? It’s at that moment you realize what dire straits you are in if you can’t solve the problem. You try to mollify them by ordering a pizza. Your concern is shared by the delivery man. He request’s a small tip if he can solve your problem, you agree. He mentions a short phrase and writes it on the pizza box. It said get Wild Blue, problem solved, you smile and instantly flip him a c-note.

Gone are the days of successful men wining, dining and wooing their female counterparts. This is a generation who has grown up with mothers just as likely to be the breadwinner in a happy household. It has been a longtime tradition for wealthy older men to purchase the most exquisite trophies on the market to be proudly displayed in their bedroom and/or kitchen; however, in an era of equal rights, it is becoming just as common for financially fortunate aging women to stop by the just-over-teenage trophy store and pick up a little something for themselves. So for all you young men out there, looking to live a lavish life of luxury but neither coming from money nor willing to work for it, these are the most eligible unmarried women in the world today, possessing that eclectic blend of riches, beauty and scorn. 1.Elin Nordegren formerly Woods net worth: 750 million It’s been a rough year run of things for Elin as of late. Combine turning 30 with the much ballyhooed antics of her ex-husband Tiger Woods off the golf course, and what you have is a gorgeous former model, with half the estate of one of the richest athletes on the world, subconsciously looking to exact her revenge and prove she’s still got it. Trust issues might still be a lingering after-effect (and with good reason), but nothing a little couples counseling on her dime can’t fix. 2.Jennifer Aniston net worth: 120 million Mainstream hope that America’s Sweetheart will live happily ever after is sinking faster than a Star Jones-paddled canoe, but who knows, perhaps you could be the fellow to treat her right. Besides, after high publicity relationships with Brad Pitt, Vince Vaughn and John Mayer, she recently slummed it up (relatively) with the actor best known as “that guy from Cougar Town.” Maybe, just maybe, “that guy who was on the Jumbotron at the game that one time” is next.
