80-year-old U.K. Billionaire Bernie Ecclestone was mugged November 24 in London for the cash he had and for his watch, valued at about US$300,000 (GBP 200,000). The man and his girlfriend were injured in the assault. Ecclestone said the assault was uncalled for; he usually doesn't carry much and would have given up anything he had if confronted.
You gotta love this: Ecclestone, with his bruises and bashed up face, appeared in an ad for the watchmaker, with the caption, "This is what some people will do to get a Hublot watch."

This is what some people will do
Given the general rise in expenses and fall in the typical standard of living, the future ain't what it used to be.
