Re: The Difference Between Michael Douglas and You
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] We're missing the main point here... Catherine Zeta-Jones is hot. Michael Douglas is not. Michael Douglas has an excessive amount of money. So does Catherine Zeta-Jones. She most likely didn't marry him for the money. Logic would therefore dictate that all other things being equal, we'd all have a shot at her too, since she's presumably not marrying him for the money. So... what's the X-factor? HOW DID THIS GUY PULL IT OFF? [/ QUOTE ] Yes she's rich, but he's uber rich. Even millionaires want a piece of a billionaire. Plus, I'm sure he's one of the most charismatic people you'd ever meet. [/ QUOTE ] Very true. Wealthy women marry the richest guy they can get as a matter of course. It's hard to see from here, but there's a huge difference between wealth and great wealth and fabulous wealth. There's the wealth that buys a Rolls and the wealth that goes to work in a helicopter, the wealth that spends 20 grand on a vacation and the wealth that spends it at a nightclub. The people at the bottom end of that scale look at the top end of it the same way poor people look at people with a few million. Even the people in the middle can't spend and show off and live anywhere near the way the guys at the top can. I used to work with an heir to the Seagrams fortune. His family owned European CASTLES, fer crissake. It takes a helluva lot more than an oscar or five to have that kind of money to throw around.

[ QUOTE ]
Michael Douglas is not a "billionaire". I can probably name 20 other actors off the top of my head who are worth more than him. [/ QUOTE ] I don't know about being a billionaire, but his money doesn't come from acting. It came from his dad, and from producing movies for 30 years now. Remember The China Syndrome? That was his. He's been in the money big leagues for a very long time now.

[ QUOTE ] yeah, kinda like Tom Cruise auditioning girlfriends. [/ QUOTE ] except that Tom Cruise does it to hide the fact that he is gay. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] This is one of those Hollywood rumors I feel might be right. There's something very, very wrong about this guy and his relationships, all scientology aside.

[/ QUOTE ] I hate to add to this because I don't want all my posts to be "Oh look a BigSteve Gay Post" but I met Tom Cruise about 3 years ago about 3 in the morning at The Bourbon Pub in New Orleans. He was with some cute guy but I don't think he was an actor. They were chatting, drinking, and laughing but nothing overly gay going on between them except for the location.
