And to show you what extremes modern youths will do to get money and materialism, here's a chinese boy who sold his kidney in order to buy an iPad, and iPhone and a laptop.

A frightening thought that reminds us never to trust everyone - there's always a hidden agenda behind and money is the idol that demands human sacrifices.   http://www.straitstimes.com:80/BreakingNews/Asia/Story/STIStory_675703.html
