So I pose to you, what would you do?

I would finish my education, make sure my family lives very well for the rest of their lives, and do what Bill Gates does now.

Good answer

Why are you posting to yourself?

Mental disorder

Ok guys...

What the fuck happened now...

Nothing!

I'm just apologizing for my general behavior

And you know what you need to get there? Money

Not true.

Over 8 months of winter, fuck yeah you do. Over hundreds of miles with a child to care for, in -30 degree weather, fuck yeah you do. Because up here, doing things without the system, or not having a setup for yourself that can operate on it's own, means you die.

He will keep saying no, it's an argument that won't change.

I understand you, he does not.

You didn't have to apologize...

I know I didn't, but I did. It's just how I am in truth

In your scenario.

In any, unless someone truly is physically deformed.

You have the resources, you live in a first world country. You have the land, the climate, the money (unless you have $0)

Completely different scenario

Because I put myself there and worked hard to do it. Providing for yourself takes effort. Doesn't matter where I was accidentally born.

Your just not getting it.

Remove who you are.


Can you grow crops on inadequate infertile ground? No.

If you have no resources or money, or food can you leave? No. Your stuck.

Neither of us are in the position to make that sort of claim. And you have to believe that. It's easier said then done.

Nothing is as simple as "they could if they wanted"

Because there could be a family trying their heart out, and still go hungry everyday. The world can be brutal and unforgiving

Oh, but I am in the position to say. I'm doing it. Yes, it's hard work, but it's better than starving to death. Hemp is also easy to grow and extremely healthy for you, having everything the body needs.

I mean paying for the food to eat.

Not literally eating money lol

One could always grow their own.

Not everyone has the ability to do so. If it was that simple, people wouldn't go hungry.

I wish it was that simple, trust me.

Everyone could if they wanted, they'd just rather be dependent.

Financial Freedom is something both beautiful, and sad.

Beautiful because it gives you the freedom to do whatever, whenever. (I'm talking legally, such as vacations and such)

Sad because so many people don't have the same freedom. Very few people get to see the world, and so many suffer and lose the basic human needs because they don't have money. It is sad that money dictates whether someone lives or dies, or whether or not they have food to eat and water to drink.

I know it's weird for me to say that, but it's true

You know what's sad in my eyes? The price paid. Everything you do, has a cost. Time. And time in your life is precious.

In order to make it that far up the ladder, time must be sacrificed. Time for family, time for friends. Time for self discovery and exploration. Your head has to be in the game 100%. Which is why it's sad. Because you see people, chasing a pipe dream with money. They spend their lives, their time away, trying to make it, trying to earn it, trying so hard in the vain misplaced hope that there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

And when they look back on their life, they realize, that even with all this wealth, or even in all their struggle, death will claim them. And so, their time was wasted. And they can't repair that with money.

I agree.

I realize I'm incredibly blessed to be where I am at such a young age. Granted, I could die at any time, I have a lot of time. More time then billions of people. But there is a time and place.

I am not of age to be going around globe trotting, as much as I want to.

Regardless of what I have I still decide to get a full education. That is not a popular opinion amongst young people in the same situation.

I still wish to live the regular life, infact, the only thing that it has effected, was my garage. I don't use it really for anything else extravagant.

I give away a lot too. It depends on the person who possesses.

You can be a compete asshole and garner more and more and fuel your own beast.

Or give back, while respecting who you are and what you would like to enjoy. Money can destroy a man, but it can also make one

And yes I know it's hypocritical coming from me. My garage is worth more money then the average human being will ever have. And to be honest,when I look at it that way I feel like shit.

I wish everyone had the freedom to love and enjoy what they have

Give me some money so I can get my fix and I'll accept it. Seriously, I'm flat broke after a bed payment.

What's your fix
Weed, shrooms, alcohol.

Sorry bruh
