Wow. I thought I had seen commercialism in Hawai'i when I had watched TV ads and gone to a local mall. Not even close

I think lots of Japanese got to Hawaii and they love that sort of stuff. Chinese too at a guess.

Haven't there been a lot of studies proving that happiness from wealth is all relative? Money only makes one happy if one has more money than one's neighbours etc. Conversely, if you're poorer...

Or that I was sad.
But I would like to be able to try Louis XIII Black Pearl Cognac, but at NZ$57000 a bottle that seems unlikely.
