I have learned that my true wealth lies not in the abundance of my possessions, but in the richness of my character.

Sometimes in life, you become aware that you have more money than friends. But let me tell you, it's not about the numbers or material possessions. True wealth lies in the genuine connections we cherish, the kind hearts that surround us, and the loyal souls that stand by our side through thick and thin. So, do not let the illusion of wealth deceive you, for those who have nothing but genuine love and support are richer than any fortune in the world. It is during testing times, when you see the true colors of those around you, and that is where your true wealth truly lies.

Monster Madness is back, the website's back, we're very excited and hope you enjoy it this whole month but there's a bit of a rocky start. The first episode had a problem with the script. One of our writers had somehow added a portion that was taken from a pre-existing article. That's unacceptable and all of us here apologize for letting that sneak in. We're very sorry and want to tell you how that happened. The short story is somebody fucked up, somebody new but I think you deserve a little bit of a longer story too so if you want to stick around for a bit here you go.
