Sayings that used to be true but aren't any more. Here's one.

"Where there's life there's hope, Where there's Hope there's Crosby, Where there's Crosby there's Stills, Nash, and Young."

Anybody else have one?

It may not be the kind of saying you meant, but I haven't said it, or thought it, in the past several years.

Cringe everytime I hear that. Only an out of touch trust fund baby would think like that...

Sure, maybe it "doesn't buy you happiness", but it sure keeps the misery out of your life.

Unfortunately, all that matters in this world is money. You have it - life is great, you don't - life is hard.

That's a fact.
