Quoted from pinzrfun:I was telling my wife last night that Kobe and his daughter were unfortunately victims of his own wealth and celebrity, because "regular" people like us would have had to drive.
A great loss.
He could have died driving, we all could die driving it has nothing to do with wealth. Car is still the most dangerous transportation method, a helicopter is far safer.
The only difference is that our death would have added one digit to an obscure statistics not a full day of headlines. That of course unless our car accident involves a celebrity !
