What do you think about Steve Jobs getting a liver over 16K wait list?

[davidisgodly]

Apparently he got a liver over the 16,000 people in front of him. Only 1500 people got a liver this first quarter year.

Money is the true root of all evil

Money is the true root of all evil

The phrase is "the love of money is the root of all evil." People always cite it like you did and think they made a point--a point that theydon't know what the hell they're talking about.

He didn't just leapfrog 16,000 people. It's not one list. Money does help but not in the way you think it does.
