In that case, I should have more money than Warren Buffett.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

In a related study, alcohol also increases your probability of sleeping with ugly people.
