What's life to you?
« on: June 09, 2012, 09:23:14 AM »
What's life to you? Make as much money as you can to be rich, have lots of power, big house, nice broads to get laid with, expensive cars, go on lots of vacations, have your own company/business running OR get the highest level of education, work for somebody, make enough money to pay bills and save some on layaway, drive a nice car, have a decent size house, have a good wife, etc. OR do you want fame/Celebrity status etc, is there a combination of these lifestyles inbetween perhaps?

You cannoy enjoy anything without good health.

Money is pretty far down my list. I now have a good job and career but as long as I am never poor and struggling i will alwyas be content.

Interesting question.

I think the biggest mistake people make is putting money first. In all actualit, money equals power, and that's why it's the mistake.

Seek love and knowledge.

In a word - accomplishment.

The best quote I've ever heard on happiness is that it's the feeling that's something has been overcome.

That's why it can never last. If you could rest on some accomplishment, you wouldn't seek out others.

I don`t have a lot of money but I get to wake up each day and pretty much decide what I want to do. It took a long time and a lot of hard work to get to this point but its pretty much what I have always wanted.
 Don`t get me wrong a huge pile of cash would be cool as long as I don`t have to give up what I already have.

Money is overrated IMHO. I just want to make enough to provide for my family, and be able to go do things as we have the time or desire, vacation, work on my hot rod.

This is true..people often lose track of whats important...health and family are always #1 and 1a

Good point. The sad thing is, you only learn about the value of good health when it's gone. Most people (especially young) take it for granted.

I pull a few from both options. Seriously. Money may not make you happy, but lack of it sure can cause problems. Do what's right for you, and as long as it doesn't encroach too much on somebody else, do it. You only get one shot at your turn on this planet.

Agreed. I have watched my dad get older and it is sad. He is only 65 and great for his age.

However, comparing him to the man he was 10 years ago is crazy. If you get old as long as your mind is sound you are rich!

Dude, going through this same shit with my dad. He's 60 and looks great, but now talks about "getting older" and his "limitations". I'm like, when did you go from being my dad to being my granddad? I guess we all age.

Life, for me, is music, training and staying independent of all the sheep who run about with their heads falling off.

Happiness and health.

I have the latter, but am still working towards the former.

I value good food, being fit and healthy, going outdoors, music, movies, art, being able to live as I want. I like freedom, to do wack shit, like following the johhnyfailcan principles. I see no value with money other than just being average with it.

conquering your enemies. seeing them driven before you. and hearing the lamentation of the women.
This is my backup plan for happiness, if my primary plan fails.

Define "accomplishment". Different meanings for different people.
