Thats exactly right. It's also the reason why grass lawns came to existence.

- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

looks like lawnMower had more influence than wealth : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawn
gardens were rather elaborate up until 18th century: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_formal_garden
They say being rich just buys you space.
You'll never be in a restaurant with tables that are too close together
You'll never be on an aeroplane with the seats too close together
You'll never have a cluttered house
Your seats at the theatre are a box
Etc etc
Basically, money keeps you away from other people
Keeps you away from the people you don't want to be close to. It's an important distinction.
Definitely recognizes the hoarding difference. When you’re poor, you have a thing, and don’t know if you’ll ever find another one under the cheap circumstances you got it, so you keep it, even without much space.
When you’re rich, you know you can obtain the item you need on demand for money. Or, say, if it’s a tool, you can hire contractors that bring their own.
There are rich people that own homes with rooms bigger than my house.
An interesting insight I learned from a YouTuber who binged a TV show that toured mansions, most of those enormous houses come with one normal-size room. That room is where the residents spend the majority of their time. Often, it's a kitchen. Sometimes, it's a "small" smoking room or even just an especially cozy corner of an oversized living room.
Yep, likewise a lot of rich people die having done very little meaningful, valuable, or good with their money.
No lies detected.
pfft, id fill it up with bikes.
