Gas at the gas station down the road from me is at around $2.75 a gallon, down from $2.90 a gallon a few weeks ago. Now personally if gas was back at the prices is was two years ago ($1.50 or so) I could think of alot of things I could buy with the extra money. A new computer, new TV, new bed, new truck. You know, just ordinary everyday things.

But, what if you were the person GETTING the $2.90 a gallon? Someone has to profit from the high gas prices of today. Well apparantly, Shiekh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the former president of the United Arabs Emirates and Ruler of Abu Dhabi is one of the major profiteers. Let's take a look at some of his stuff.

Here is his house:

Here is his simming pool:

Here are some of the toys he has in his garage:

And my personal favorite, a silver Audi A8:

And if you didn't notice, that isn't a silver paint job, the fucking car is MADE OUT OF SILVER!! Every part of the car that can be made of silver IS MADE OF SILVER!! WTF!!

I don't know about you guy's but I think it's about high time we kick this shitty fucking oil habit. I hope the Shiekh has fun driving around in his Silver Audi while I try to scrape together enough money for rent and gas.

This is addressed on snopes.com. Most of it is urban legend. The Audi is polished aluminum if I remember correctly, and I think that is a resort/hotel in either the UAE or Qatar.

I'm so glad I got to pay for this faggot's silver-plated car.

American oil companies are also reporting record-breaking profits, so blame them too.

You sound like someone trying to make a petty personal attack. Did I per-chance own you in another thread? My memory eludes me. I sincerely hope I did not cause mental distress to you, but your replies seem to state otherwise. Please let me know what i can do to make it all better for you.

That really looks to me like the words of someone who is super duper upset.

There are only four things in this world that upset me, and this isn't one of them.

Just for some comparison. The picture was taken a year ago. The price has gone down some 20 cents or so, but still..

Oh yeah, its €/litre
