Some oil investors were pretty pissed off when they saw Gary Milby doting upon his spoiled daughter on MTV's My Super Sweet 16 earlier this season. There are four federal lawsuits pending against Milby for allegedly taking $20 million from investors in his Kentucky oil fields and then never giving them any return on their money. It's a long, complicated story about securities fraud and blah, blah... the interesting part comes when investors saw Milby on MTV, spending what they can only assume is their money on his daughter's birthday party. You see, they haven't been able to find the guy to serve him with the lawsuits.

Milby's Sweet 16 party for his daughter, Ariel, was pretty outlandish, even by MTV standards. He helicoptered her in to the princess-themed party and then she rode in a Cinderella-style carriage the rest of the way. There were the usual ice sculptures and fireworks, as well as a BMW as a birthday gift. I'm sure seeing this on television just rubbed salt on the wound of these poor investors.

I always wondered what the parents of these rich kids did for a living.
