True. Although I have seen some friends who are adamant about trying to improve their childrens lot in life either looks wise or economically and they usually end up succeeding out of sheer perseverence and smarts.
I would've thought most people marry out of love or at least strong affinity and mutual life goals but some out there (and not saying it was the case here) are very calculating and focus only on traits that will bring them the most benefits.
Once you are outstanding in at least one area it makes up for other percieved "deficiencies". It's a snowball effect. -

I do not envy him in the least. I can't envy someone who's thousands of miles away from me, have never met him and know nothing really about him. I was just making an observation, but more to the effect 'I'm happy that there are people who appear to be perfect out there (at least from the outside)'. There aren't any in my world for sure.

aleksandarsk:
Imagine being born extremely rich perfectly beautiful a movie superstar. Why is luck not distributed a little bit more evenly in the world?
You're confusing appearances and perceived value with reality. And, it's not healthy to dwell on the line of reasoning in your post. It's faulty and ultimately self-defeating. Such thinking blinds your from your own unique "lucky" attributes. Believe me: I have known many individuals who project "perfection" but lead a troubled hidden life. -

I am a lucky bast*rd too. I was born middle class, grow up to have above average look and then have a good career.
Whenever I am jealous of someone, I ask myself:"Have you fully utilized all the things that luck has given to you in life?" If the answer is no, I don't feel I am entitled to ask for more.
So far, all my answers are no. -

Check your sources.
His family "basically disowned him" when he dropped out of high school to pursue an acting career.
Thus, he CREATED his OWN career path instead of staying effortlessly rich. -

I agree in Full with kaliphornia_dreemin
I was poor. Then rich. Now poor again and amazingly I am happyer overall.
I miss some things but not all the stress. So will take a break then go back to being rich.
One thing anyone that has never been rich should know. you find out real fast that folks you thought were friends are not when you are no longer rich. Thus they were NEVER your friend. They were in Fact nothing more than leaches. Also as I heard Mark Cuban say " you have a target on your back" Man was he ever right on. Folks would sue me or my company just because we had $. On guy that I gave a chance to make it as a director said to on of the produccers regarding me "Looks like Home boy has more money than we thought. We just have to figure out how to get it from him." And they made a move to get it. The Moron looser lost of cource but put us through hell. All the teribel things said about us that were public b68record. In the long run folks remember only the bad stuff. So I would say do not be too invious of this guy. And I bet he catches hell over his grand dad being a communist who used to hang out with Stalin When Stalin was killing anyone in the USSR that had $.
Be carefull what you wish for.
