Yeah yeah whatever. You can keep preaching all you want but you're still prancing around on a regular basis bragging about how great your life is and that's mostly due to the fact that you're supposedly quite wealthy. All I see is someone who's incredibly naive and hasn't faced a lot of the basic struggles of life and yet tries to act like he has.
Money is still an essential part of life and you suffer a lot if you're struggling to make enough of it.
My father was unemployed for two years, we nearly lost out house and nearly hit rock bottom. I'm one of five in my family, I know how it feels when shit hits the fan. I was the first one to lose things when shit hit the fan, because I was the youngest. I didn't get Christmas gifts for three years, my other brothers did.
Granted that's the past nowadays, and everything worked out, I know how it feels. I'm not naive and blind to the aspects of life.
Sure, sure. I believe you.
Clearly not.
But your stories are just so compelling. How could I not believe them?
Still holding grudges I see, oh well. Continue being a skeptic and berating me, you have the freedom to

Tell that to someone who makes $9 an hour.
If someone can tell me that who makes $0 an hour, and has been unemployed for months, then there's truth in it.
Let me put it this way.
You can be penniless and still find things to be happy about. If you don't you'll probably kill yourself, and there's an awful lot of poor people roaming around for them to have all killed themselves yet.
But the thing is, nobody wants to be in a situation where they wake up every morning and say "oh hey, I've got no house, job, or money, but I still have my life!"
Ever.
That's not even my point. My whole point of this entire thread is about how money fucks people over, and that you should pursue what truly makes you happy.

I'm employed now, and make $9 an hour. What are you trying to get at? If there's anyone that's spoiled here, it's you. Your parents bought you a McLaren P whatever the hell it is.
Once again, my parents (dad is the only one who works) could not spend a penny, for over 6 years, to afford that one car. He didn't pay for it, no one did but myself. No idea how your jumping to conclusions

And you never know, you could have a connection with someone and feed off eachother. Sure, a mentor is always good, but being able to say you formed yourself and your own style goes with a lot more merit.
Which is why I think that having some dedicated peers would be very great as well.
However, I don't care for the 'merits' of learning everything myself. That is meaningless to me and my own skill. I'd just appreciate the wisdom of someone with experience who could criticize my work.
As for that heavy mind of mine, I'm not one to put my own baggage on the table like that. I open up when people inquire, as rare of an occasion as that is.
Well, then consider my offer and friendly inquiry. A genuine one too.
And I get your points, I see that the experience and wisdom is invaluable, so I can't argue that.
Seek out peers on this website and see where it takes you, no harm
In doing so
Eh, I suppose the very nature of not displaying the real depth of my thoughts and interests until asked to share it is what keeps me from getting to know any of you any more personally.
Honestly, though, I'm not sure where to begin with that sort of thing. My life isn't much worth talking about when it comes to entertainment and my interests can be very niche.
Doesn't matter to me, I will always find learning and talking to another person entertaining. There's no doubt it will be interesting because our interests are very varied and different. It's a conversation id personally enjoy, but it's ultimately up to you if your comfortable with it. If you are, feel free to PM me at any time

Agreed 100%. its all about your mind. A poor man can be much happier than a millionaire living in a mansion. My friends joke that I'm going to become a monk in Tibet haha
This is also hard for me to reinforce because my family has a good amount of money but I still believe I'd be happy without it
I don't see you being a monk, but some form of guru. Idk

What is this STEM shit I keep seeing? Those are not the only careers.
I used it as an example because everyone loves to say STEM is the only way to make money nowadays

I'm not going to say I disagree, but it's much easier to say money isn't everything when you have enough that it isn't a daily concern for you.
And your right, that's a valid argument. But I'm taking it from what I see in terms of the other members of my family (cousins and such). They hardly have any money, yet the thrive and pursue. They found what makes them happy and don't look at money as a limiter. Sure, they would love to go on vacations and buy all these things. But what they do is they enjoy what they have, and the money they make they save for the holidays. I really respect that

I like living to create. Unfortunately passion is a seed that needs watering to grow and mine feels like it was planted on Mercury these days. ='[
What do you enjoy doing?
Well in regards to a career, I want to do something with art. I'd love to sell my work but I need a lot more exposure and practice before I feel ready to try that out.
Sadly I'm fairly out of practice not having any real friends or acquaintances that share my interests to grow off of stunts my drive.
Fuel yourself, and look at this community. A lot of people on here love the arts, maybe there's something of value for you here.
Motivation flows like molasses with so much on my mind.
But, truly, what I would really like (albeit some dedicated 'peers' would be very nice as well) is a mentor.
If there's anything you need to get off your chest I'm more then happy to talk it out with you mate. I know how much a heavy mind can bring you down. And you never know, you could have a connection with someone and feed off eachother. Sure, a mentor is always good, but being able to say you formed yourself and your own style goes with a lot more merit.

I never understood people's obsession with money and being rich; sure I make jokes a lot of you and giving me money, but I really don't care for money all I know is that it's a necessity; saying that dough I like ya BC your one of my favorite posters here, I like how you talk to us like equals; you don't keep the fact that your rich a secret and you always openly tell us about your expensive cars, instead of "nah I don't want to tell them about the expensive stuff that I buy because, I don't want people to know how poor they are"
Thanks dude, I appreciate it. And yea. I honestly think half of you are better then me, because I value person over what you come from. I don't think I'm better then anyone here, and I have no intention of treating anyone like a lesser. It's stupid and pointless and unnecessary

Bull
Shit
Money would solve all my problems
Am I saying money doesn't have a grasp on aspects of your life? No. Debt and all that can really fuck you over. But you have to work your way through it. Put your head in the ground and get through it.

I'll tell you that right now. A lot of you take me as the stereotypical rich fuck boy. And because of that a lot of you have grown to dislike me. Well, let me be totally honest. Sure, money buys me the cars I want and adore and that I drive. But in all honesty, i could be just as happy without them. At the end of the day it really is just a car. I damn love the machines that sleep in my garage, but they aren't worth more then, let's say, a person. Or a family. Or someone's well being or someone's happiness. What's funny is all of you would jump to the conclusion that all I care about is money and money is everything.
Well, fuck money. Money, at it's core really does fuck up society, and it fucks up people. When you value paper over another human being you see how truly dark and evil it can be. You don't even need a lot of it to act that way.
I'm doing the same things I planned to do before all of this. I'm still going to college, still planning to learn all the things that truly interest me. A few of you complain that you feel you waisted your life with school and what you studied. Honestly, it's not because of any of that. It's because of your drive.
You like writing? Fuck what the world says, write. Write the best damn book you can make and be damn proud of it. Publish it, and make money off something you truly enjoy. It's possible. More then possible.
I know getting a job nowadays isn't a walk in the park, and so many of you knock yourself down because of it. I know both incredibly, and shit people that can't find jobs. People that are so responsible that get no luck. But they don't give up, they perserve and they make their way back up. Your life is what you make of it.
When you genuinely put your heart and soul into everyday, and into pursuing what YOU want, not what society tells you, then your happy. And along the way, who knows, someone could see you and help you along your path. The world works that way.
STEM fields are all good and nice, and if you really want money and want to buy your way into happiness (this is for people who only do it for that reason, not because they like it) then go for it. You'll be miserable for a decade but hey, it'll pay off.
To those of you who truly want the path you see, go for it. Your young, I'm young, we can take risks. Only when you grow older is when you begin to become more methodical. So write, paint, sing, do what your heart desires. And somewhere along that path will you hit the point where it all works out.
If you live life doing what people tell you and by shooting yourself down and suppressing who you are, you aren't living at all.
So live. Money isn't everything, Happiness is.
