  • Do you live in a cave? Do you know why people want a bigger income? It is so they have something to eat for more then once a week you moron. How old are you 2? You are probobly living in mommy's basement eating Cheetos and playing your Xbox. Wake up and see the real world. What owns the house you stay in, what feeds you, what gives you gas? Are you really this dim?

      • Oh no that is fine what I was implying is that OP is a kid snacking on Xbox and typing on the internet all day and too lazy to get off his/her ass and get a job. So think they can talk about how stupid money is. Since their mommy is probobly paying for their lazy asses. Yes some adults eat cheetohs and play xbox. I like cheetohs. Since apparently some people are too stupid to realize that money is needed to survive and its what mommy and or daddy goes to work to earn everyday so their family is not eating from the trash. That or the OP enjoys eating from the trash and inspires to sit on a side walk with a can begging. They would probobly be too stupid to beg though. Since clearly earning a living is the oddest thing in the world to this OP.

        • I don't think you get it.

          I believe that earning a living is very important, however I do not equate how much money I make/have made/will make with any level of happiness.

          Instead, I feel that having a fulfilling, rewarding career will make me happier than a certain amount of money.

          I would rather live on less money in a rural area and lead a simpler life than make 10x as much money and live in a dirty, congested metropolitan area. Some people don't agree with that (recently a friend told me that they would rather have a larger salary but live in a terrible place than live in a comfortable place for less money).

          It makes me wonder, why DO people obsess over money so much? Wouldn't success taste much better if people simply loved what they were doing as a career?

          As for me, I'm a hard working person. I've worked several jobs at a time and lived on my own. I'm currently studying for a Master's degree and I intend to start a business once I am done.

          I live, eat, and breathe my career because it's what I am passionate about. No dollar amount can possibly sway me away from doing what I love for the rest of my life.

          Get it?

          • Also, @RomeoDeMontague:

            Your comments do not have any emotional impact on me whatsoever, and my stance on the money issue remains the same, by the way.

            I'm very curious as to what your thought process is that leads to the decision to do/say things online that spread negativity.

          • Yes since I am sure starving is the same as being able to eat. I am sure a homeless person on the street does not enjoy being that way. Homeless get abused and many are raped on the street. So you are going to tell me all of these people are happy and having fun? Grow up and see the real world. You sound like an immature child. Grow up please. Mommy and daddy are not going to take care of you forever. Even if they do they should not have to. You might think being homeless, poor, and hungry is enjoyable. You probobly never been in that position. So stop taking for granted the fact you can post this bull shit on the computer. If you want to go live with the poor prove it. See how much money doesn't matter after. I really doubt you will be complaining after that. Money pays for the internet so off the computer. Since using one is hypocritical.

            • At what point did I say that I wanted to be homeless? When did I say that homeless people were happy?

              I believe that one should place more value on leading a fulfilling life than on how much money they make. If you make a large salary, but hate every day of work - what's the point? Sounds like a miserable life.

              Why not accept a smaller salary for something that is rewarding and fulfilling?

              • Money is the currently what we use in exchange for most products. Some people also have families that they need to take care of. So they would like to feed them good food, and have them go to a good school. You might be irresponsible and not care about anyone else but some people do. So wake up and face the fact at this point that WE NEED MONEY. You can say that all you like but I am sure those homeless people on the street would like some. Without having to worry about not having a house to sleep in or food in there stomach and hooking for cash.

    • I am 26, I live 2400 miles from home, I do not own an Xbox and I don't eat junk food.

      My main point is this: our society equates money with happiness. People chase bigger incomes because they think it'll make them happier, but studies have shown repeatedly that how much money someone makes doesn't have a positive correlation with happiness. In fact, if someone's basic needs are covered and they are around people they enjoy being around, their level of happiness is typically equal to that of multimillionaires.

      The fact of the matter is, we live in a greedy, money hungry society: and I want it to stop. I think it will take a dramatic economic upheaval to break people's money-obsessed mindsets.
