I just realized (because I only just thought about it for the first time) DM is a Virgo and I really felt compelled to take a look at this fact. I don't at all care for the details when it comes to daily astrology (moon in the seventh house kind of stuff) but I have to admit everybody I know can be accurately described by their zodiac sign, at least to 80% but virgos usually more. Every Virgo I know has a plan and follows it, they are anal, they are extremely organized. I don't know any virgos who do not have these traits and they are not traits that can be collectively generalized to other signs. ( I will go as far as to say the 5 most organized people I have ever known are all Virgos). And V is one astrological sign that is quite unique from the others because of this. I can't tell my sagitarians from my geminis but I can pretty much predict when someone I am dealing with is a Virgo.
I bring this up because many people here have concluded, in their own opinion that they are very much entitled to, that DM was unmotivated, lazy, lacked direction, etc. I feel strongly enough about the Virgo traits to say that this thinking should be reconsidered. I don't know what was happening in his life since November or where his head's been at since his father's death and the cancellation of the Certificate that was to seal his future, but I am willing to bet he knew what he was doing before that. MOO!
And I do have to say, if you are rich because of inheritance, and also disciplined and organized enough to make a decent living from real estate investments and you have discovered that you can support your hobbies and continue enjoying your interests like cooking and gaming with the income that you make in real estate investment, why would you want to go to work everyday? And people are saying he's not intelligent? Smart enough to know how to make money and enjoy life at a young age. MOO!
I worked for a Virgo for years and years. He was the boss, we had to answer to him and he didn't have to justify his whereabouts to us. He was (and is even more now) a multi-millionaire. He had many outside interests including travel and racing and collecting; he strolled into the office around noon most days if he showed up at all. He lived the good life but he was smart as a whip and worked hard when he had to. He was popular in his circles. The difference between him and DM is he had about 15 years on DM's current age (then), was married with kids, wore fine clothes and basically presented like a worldly jet setter, not a tattooed youngster. Not once did we question his whereabouts, as HE employed US. He was not our co-worker. So does DM's hangar staff, or a reporter, or the public, have a right criticize DM's tardiness and automatically take it to mean he didnt work hard and he was just spoilt, just because he was in his 20's and was taking over the family business?
Maybe DM appearing casual in the workplace made everyone else develop a lackadaisical attitude and once everything went downhill and people started getting fired, they begin pointing fingers. MOO!
