I used to get annoyed at rich people who whinged about how awful it was to
be rich and famous.  I don't know if so many people do that now, but it
seemed to be common a decade or two ago.  If being rich was so bad for
them, I'd have been willing to help remove the source of their pain :-(.

But Kurt Cobain wasn't in that situation.  He was severely depressed before
he became rich, and money isn't a cure for everything.  So I get more
annoyed at people who say "what a loser", than I do at him.  Anyway, he
wrote some good tunes.

Dave.
