    Yes, because there are definitely more options than waste your years trapped in wage slavery. 🙄

      Tons. People just generally want to be safe and stable so they gravitate to those kinds of jobs.

        Are you suggesting bank robbery? Because it’s a fluke those guys got away with it.

        Or did they get caught already? I haven’t kept up.

      Depends what you want. Do you want your income to be stable and predictable and not too low? Then that’s your best bet. More interesting usually comes with less stability or possibly less income to start.

        I certainly enjoy not being homeless and would like to continue not being homeless. If I can actually buy some things that aren’t the absolute cheapest worst possible option as well that would also be good.

    To give OP a boon, my friend’s mother had a plaque with a saying along the lines of “I was born against my will and I will die against my will. So please let me at least live like I want to.”

    I think that’s a good philosophy to approach your own life and the people you encounter.

      I liked the quote until I started to think of the negative parameters of such a saying. It comes down to who is saying it < their intention.

      ‘I was born against my will and I will die against my will. So please let me at least live like I want to.’ - Ted Bundy

      v.s.

      ‘I was born against my will and I will die against my will. So please let me at least live like I want to.’ - Betty White

    Hmm. I don’t know about that. Maybe certain very rich people have more freedom regarding the way they can live. I just have to do 9-5, no questions asked.
