I was sitting on the couch a while ago flipping back and forth between the only two channels worth watching for Music(VH1 and CMT) and I heard a few songs that really got me thinking

Well first off, anybody who says "Nice Guys Finish Last" is either not a nice guy, or hasn't finished yet.
Assholes have the advantage in some situations, but they (contrary to popular belife) finish DEAD last. Hitler was ruler of a huge part of the globe and was probably the most powerful man in the world at his time. He finished in a bunker, covered with gasoline after shooting himself (and his lady) in the head. Yeah that's not last?
Also for your comment of helping people untill you get hurt, I wrote a little fable.
"A monk is walking through a bizzard, and comes across a man nearly frozen in the snow. To save the man the monk gives him his robe. The Monk then freezes to death."
The Monk was a fool for doing that, not because he let himself die, but he could have saved and influenced far more lives than just the one if he had gone on living. Sometimes you can't help somebody, EVEN if there is a way to try, but you'll hurt yourself far more than you could ever help them, and you're a fool for making such a move.
If a friend needs help, make sure you can still be around to help them the next time. You can't save them all.
