Guys, I agree with her on this one. Take Vincent van Gogh for example. The poor fellow couldnt make a dime selling his paintings in his whole damn lifetime. People didnt care about his art. He went in and out of hospitals due to depression and malnourishment. He didnt get a decent girlfriend, had to be happy with a thin ugly postitute as his companion. People laughed at his stupid style. He would have starved to death had his kind brother not helped him survive.

And now, after a century(1890 to the current date), he is suddenly the most sought after artist! His art sells for billions each. Man, this is an unfair world.
