Why do people spend so much time at work.
Why not spend less on house, car and stupid stuff, and work less ?
That extra time could be spent with friends, family, excercising, making healthy meals, engaging in hobbies and interests, talking a walk, trekking and camping, fishing, hunting, travel. I mean, just living your life...
Are we brainwashed by the system from early age. Having to spend most of the day in school and then do homework. Like that we should not develop time comsuming interests that could conflict future working "career".
The media and commercials brainwash us into this comsumer spending trap. But I am starting to wonder if it really makes us happy.
Who are you kidding? You want the 'toys'; you just want the government and/or your parents to give them to you vs. you busting your @$$ to get them.
It appears you're the one who's brainwashed by lazy liberalism.
Camping, fishing, hunting, traveling, etc.........That ain't free and certainly not cheap. You're buying into the BS that SOMEBODY ELSE should work hard; so that you don't have to do so.
At some point, SOMEBODY is paying for this mess.
Besides, you act as if it's an either/or routine. For years, I've put in 60+ hours a week working. Yet, for some reason, I've managed to pump iron 4 times a week, go on date nights with my wife, vacations with my wife and my kids, etc.
Doing all these extracuricular activites is much easier when you have MONEY in your pocket. With regards to the iron thing, for some reason I found that the harder I work and more money I make, the easier it is to train at the gym, buy food (steak, chicken, fish, veggies), get supplements (notwithstanding my affinity for finding clearance sales at GNC) and so forth.
BTW, Ronnie Coleman won 3 Olympias while working as a full-time cop. I'm just sayin'.
Or just live low and work less, with less savings of course. But with a well lived life ?
Been there, done that!! It's called being PO'!
No thanks!!!
