Anyone watch Royal Pains on USA?

I was watching the pilot episode a few minutes ago and in the house of Hank's first client is a display case with two T206 Wagners. I can't afford a reprint, let alone two of the real thing. They say money can't by happiness but apparently can buy a couple Wagners which means that you must at least be able to rent it for awhile.

    Having a T206 Wagner would definitely bring me happiness...heck, I wouldn't even care if I never had sex again I'd be so thrilled and overjoyed...


    ...well, for at least a week anyway. LOL

    Me too. Of course I'm married now so I'm learning to live without the sex part. image

    Very cute show. Hope it gets renewed; I think it will.

    There is some dark stuff going on in the background.
    Take note of what the departing house-doc told Hank.

    (Notice that the rich kid with hemophilia in the pilot was
    replaced by a new actor in subsequent shows. The original
    kid was better.)

    ....

    Money has NOTHING to do with "happiness," except that if you
    have money, you will not be unhappy about not having money.

    I know lots of really rich folks and they are just as happy/unhappy
    as anybody else I know. The only problems they do not have are
    those that can be directly solved with money; that list may seem
    long, but it is not really very long at all.

    "The only problems they do not have are

    Rich folks are just as likely as the rest of us to:

    have serious health concerns (Geo Steinbrenner)
    have issues with their kids/parents (Marvin Gaye)
    have problems with a girlfriend (Steve McNair)
    make a series of flawed decisions (the Pittsburgh Pirates)

    and as storm said, no amount of money could likely have prevented any of the lousy outcomes to the above
