Today's get rich quick scheme: Marry Kim Kardashian

Cynicism is one of my least attractive qualities. However, it is extremely difficult not to feel cynical about the recent announcement that Kim Kardashian plans to divorce her husband after 72 days of marriage. She raked in $18 million when she got married. Was it all a sham from the beginning? I don't know, but she sure made out like a bandit in terms of money and publicity for her television program. Instead of occupying Wall Street, maybe all those protesters should occupy Ms. Kardashian. She is a remarkable example of cool-headed capitalism.
