Burning a million

[luckybastard]

Remember 'KLF' ? They had some hits in the 90's and made a million pound with that. Then, they simply set it all to fire.

I found this a very interesting interview and since it's kinda related to our business (we're all here to make those millions), I thought I'd post it here:

It puts our business a little into perspective I think

Fucking losers.

Could have fed the homeless or given it to very needy charities.

Scumbags trying to prove some idiotic point.

Yep, they could have. But how many people do you know that have given their million to charity ? These guys are not 'better' or less 'selfish' than you or me, nor do they pretend to be.

What's the difference between burning a million and buying a ferrari ? Isn't it pretty much the same ?

The more I think of it, there more I think it's brilliant Not that I'd do the same, I'd go for the Ferrari But that doesn't make it less brilliant.

PR stunt ? These guys said back then they'd never make another album and they didn't. Not sure what good such a 'PR stunt' would bring them if they were not going to make any new tracks
