She's a rich girl

Gotta hand it to Oprah. Miss touchy-feely uses her head for once and gets it right:

Winfrey, 52, who is reportedly worth more than $1 billion, said she doesn't feel guilty about her wealth. "I was coming back from Africa on one of my trips," she said. "I had taken one of my wealthy friends with me. She said, 'Don't you just feel guilty? Don't you just feel terrible?' I said, 'No, I don't. I do not know how me being destitute is going to help them.' Then I said when we got home, 'I'm going home to sleep on my Pratesi sheets right now and I'll feel good about it.' "

Being poor sucks. Being rich doesn't. And those who get rich through their own talent and/or hard work don't have a thing to apologize for.
