One of my psychology books shows that money actually does make you happier.

money may not make one happy. but for most of us in this society we need money to function. we need money to eat, to sleep, to drink, etc. weather you spent it or someone else did the money is spent and your alive.
say you want to do something, and that is what will make you happy. it costs money to do that thing. and if that's the only thing that will make you happy, and you need money to do it then you need money to be happy.
say your happy with food, water and shelter. it costs money to have food, water and shelter. so to have that you need to have money, thereby making the money make you happy.
unless your extremely resourceful and can truly live off of the land 100% then you need money to survive in this world.
ive been trying all my life to figure out a way to figure out how to live 100% off the land and have yet to figure it out. I think less people o the earth may help.

Its sad, I dont go back to my hometown very often because its depressing. I see the same kids working the same jobs they had in high school close to 5 years ago and living with their parents just going to the one bar in town to get shittered and then do blow all night and play shitty video games or watch shitty cartoons.
Its lame.
i still live in my hometown but i never hang out with any of my old friends really other than like 3-4. everyone just wants to go to the local pub. like what a fuckin waste of money. they all must think i dont really like t
most of the people i chill with these days are people ive met at shows/festivals

The friends that turned into scumbag losers got that way thanks to their drug/alcohol addictions. It's sad, really, i wish them the best.

I have a reall poor friend who lives with their father and is a week older than I, hes 20 and still in high school for half a year. has never had a job. no car, liesence nothing.
im not saying hes a scumbag but fits the shoes and its not his fault. his father had him when he was 20 and started doing manual labor to support him and is still doing that now. no clue what this kid is going to do. he wont even get off his couch to apply for jobs not even a mile down the road. if I try and talk to him about it he just flips out and says I cant say shit cause I eat lsd all the time.
example. most would consider him a scumbag.

You may as well of said goal 1 is to be a Barbie doll.

Nope, My parents were poor and selfish,

Its greed, never enough. A total lie.

I just need enough to do what I want without working. That's all I'll ever need. Greed won't happen to me, because money is just a means to and end for me.

yeah you were there, sheekle may or may not have been there for this interaction, but you and your girl were most deffinatley there. I said I could get some rolls some I knew were good and some I dint know about. could only get the ones I dint know about, told you and your girl I didn't know what they were. so we went back to my campsite with someone who had a test kit, me and two of my friends along with you and your girl were present and watching while the pills were being tested. we all came to the conclusion they were not mdma, but were and mdxx chem.
you looked right at me and said well, I still want a few. ill just bring them home and sell them as mdxx pills cause we don't know what md chem it is. so yes I sold you rolls that had possibly no mdma in them, you also bought them knowing they were some random ass mdxx chem.
you were there, your girl was there. we were sitting under the ez up between my tent and my buddys van on his couch up and to the right of the concert field if you were looking away from the stage.

Most of the people who were doing drugs in high school have quit and got married and have kids... But they still work at jiffy lube or wal mart.
I never did drugs in high school besides some alcohol. Now I smoke weed every day and trip and take mdma, but am not married and have no kids.... But I have a successful career and zero debt so I think I'm doing good and don't really envy the people who are parents now.
