Were always working, paying for bills, groceries, essential items, non essential items
its just this constant stream of money in money out
is it normal to feel exhausted by it
like all your efforts just result in the transition of money
The way I look at it, you can either pick your berries or you can buy them
Sure, the working class is the new slave class, but money is a pretty universal resource that can get everything you said
A good chunk of your income is gonna be for your housing and car, but those two things provide so many other resources, like taking a shower and having somewhere safe to sleep and going to work and the grocery store
Some people would rather pick their berries though, nothing wrong with that. There are homesteaders in Alaska who till the land and raise cattle and build their homes
But I mean once you rationalize the things you spend money on are things you need to survive and then make goals on what you're gonna spend it on it kind of makes it easier to be in that cycle
I don't know about you, but I would rather work ten hour shifts and come home to this apartment and do basically whatever I want how I want than wake up at 5am every day to build a farm and a life from scratch presumably with no start up money
Its an unnatural way to live. Yes people need to support themselves but there are many different ways of doing that. The problem is education really only serves to get you used to the regimented 9 to 5 work schedule, it doesn't make you smarter it makes you a better drone. Student loan debt is a scam so that you have to get a job after school is done.
The system in place right now does a pretty good job at putting people into convenient little boxes and keeping them there. Most people aren't creative enough to want to break out.
