    Какая разница, умереть богатым или бедным?

    Какой толк от богатства если ты не счастлив.

    Which, it should be pointed out, is simply the translation for Basuero's original Russian message, Lisa.
    Заранее благодарю всех за исправление ошибок в моём русском.

    Watch before you tease people about their names-- I'm sure some Russian names are quite humourous in English as well.

    In English it sounds like arson...

    Arson - the willful or malicious burning of property (as a building) especially with criminal or fraudulent intent

    I know what arson is. For me the name doesn't sound like this, so I missed your pun.
