Those who have money Do not wear it like a sheriff's badge; Nor do they light cigarettes with rolled greenbacks. They do not judge things and people in terms of Dollar signs. But those who do not have money, but only pretend to Have money; and those to whom money has come Suddenly and unexpectedly live too lavishly, Dress ornately, cultivate new vocal tones. New friends and frequently new codes of ethics. They bow to the material side of life And to money, their master.
