If I was making a lot of money right now, I would upgrade to a beautiful house with garage and have at least two kids who would then play with my sister's new kid and we would vacation together and bring the dogs too and everyone would have a big bonfire and grill meat and watch the stars.
Go do something like that with your money. |

having lots of money without working is 180
working for it is like 140 |

Date: September 22nd, 2017 12:13 AM Author: provocative hospital Because a nice 2100 ft2 3 bedroom feels very similar to a huge house, especially if you only use 2100 ft2.
A civic feels a lot like an M5 on your 35 mph-limited street into work, once you've driven both every day.
A $25,000 vacation isn't a whole lot more fun with the family than driving to the coast and putting everyone on a carnival cruise for $1,000.
Being level 50 in your RPG and unlocking some sure-to-be-awesome firebolt spell feels a lot like playing the game at level 49. You're just on a treadmill.
Or, put another way, money is how the world keeps score, so people expect to be better, sexier, sought-after, smoother, happier, more respected, when they end up with $$. It's not how the world awards those accolades/attributes 99.99% of the time. The world just marks you up a few points in the universal score rankings, but everything else stays the same. And the marginal creature comforts are very marginal.

This thing has huge damage multipliers and massive area of effect. Cool graphics too, so everyone knows you're one of the few that has it. Looked forward to getting it for a week.
Then, twenty minutes later, you get used to having it, and you go back to killing swamp rats for more XP, no more content than you were twenty minutes before.
The same holds true for buying that M5. |

That is the tricky part for most people. Particularly "smart" people who succeeded in school. I can make more money with a little more striving-- why not? I can get that M5 like the guy down the hall. And on it goes. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3640104&forum_id=2#34267015) |
