I live with a guy who was successfully unemployed for around 7 years, got in an arts degree and has been successfully a "student" of miscellaneous subjects (none of which raise his income potential) for 3 years, now.

Do I envy him?  Slightly, as I am about to depart for work this morning - but the dude is going nowhere in life and will go nowhere.  It must be a source of frustration for him.

How is being unemployed like that successful? The only thing he was succesful at is stealing our money with the government being the accomplice.

I make $45 an hour to have my hands on semi naked/naked (on occasion) women, so no, I don't envy those on unemployment. Not at all.

If I could get away with I would have a patch of jungle in South America somewhere and smuggle cocaine.

Working gives you a sense of accomplishment, and purpose in life, but that quickly can turn sour when your effort is not reflected in wages.

Would i rather do labour work for $10.25/hr, or collect unemployment, watch youtube vids, movies, read, workout, and hangout with bitches?

I think the answer is obvious.

Your credit will get destroyed and you eventually won't be able to buy a car or a house. I have a feeling you know that already. The credit card companies don't care if you don't pay. That's what crazy high revolving interest rates are for. To make sure they make money. It's the same old current story in America. The workers who pay their bills and taxes take care of the slackers.

Enjoy unemployment, obama cell phones, food stamps, welfare, disability social security and housing assistance. I have to go to work.

credit cards r for chumps u dont need credit to buy a car or house brainwashed jewry.

I like the idea of the work week going from 40 to 32 hours to lower the unemployment rate.

Do you like the idea of being paid 20% less to go along with that?

I suggest you look up successful in the dictionary.

He means to be unemployed.

He is.

He has achieved and maintained his goal for a great deal of time.

Success in his eyes.

Make sure you don't get married to him then, could always give him a few elbows to the face when he rolls over on to your ripped pillows.

Then you have the wrong avatar, sir.  If you turned it down, maybe.

People who are happy being unemployed suck.

Live on pennies

Cant afford to own and run a car

no woman repect or desire them

never own their own house and have to live in shitty council houses or little bedsits like method101

have to sit with some little homo at the jobcentre as they tell them what pathetic humiliating low paid jobs to apply for.

yes but

most people who work need a car to go to work, they wear it  out and spend a fortune on fuel just to go to work

That's why I prefer living in a big city with a good underground/metro network.

So convenient to travel and much less stress and expenses.

I have the best of both worlds.
Work as much as an unemployed person but earn a quite comfortable living.

not in the slightest. was on unemployment for a few months, hated every day of it. gotta stretch the budget thin, you feel like a piece of shit and don't want to hang out with your employed friends, the days all start to blend together into one big depressing mass, you feel guilty as fuck spending money on anything fun because you know you didn't earn it.

that's just me, anyway. i'm way happier working.
