Still Pulling It In

saw a little blurb in the paper this morning listing the ten dead celebrities earning the most money...so as i'm reading this many things cross my mind...isn't this a little morbid, somewhat tacky, sad and exploitive...not that it stopped me from reading the list, which didn't surprise me much, both my morbid fascination, and who was on it...what did, and at the same time didn't surprise me was how much some of them earned...elvis of course topped the list at 40 million....dead forever and still pulling in 40 mil...quite an accompishment, not that he much cares, or reaps the benifits...that's more than me, my girlfriend, both our immediate families, our friends and their families, earned combined in that same year...not sure how i feel about that, other than i feel certain that his estate doesn't really need another 40 mil, and that money could have helped a lot of people who did need money in some way...while i respect the right to earn what you can and then pass it to your heirs, it would be nice if people would think to use possible continuing income like that to some sort of trust, foundation, or charity...after all it isn't as if Priscilla, Lisa Marie, or Yoko need any more money.
