[QUOTE=BananaFoam;26194252]Make a thread expecting sympathy. You shalll find none. Tell your Mom to get a fucking job and stop leaching of your grandmother. If this whole "richness" thing is bothering you so much, move to a small country community. I live in a fucking hick town but here I'm considered fucking rich. I'm only middle class. And besides, being rich makes you a total asshole. Like seriously, it does. No matter how hard you try, being rich will give you massive ego problems.[/QUOTE] My grandma is dead, we lived in her house because we had no money to live anywhere else.
[QUOTE=MrAfroShark70;26149557]I don't wish I was rich. In my opinion, you can find happiness without money. There are many things that make me happy that I need to spend money on, that's a standard for almost everyone, but that doesn't mean I have to be rich in order to buy these things. I also generally hate the concept of money and currency, it works for simple and easy trade but in the end, money fucks over everyone.[/QUOTE] "I don't need drugs to have fun!" yeah, you don't NEED money to have fun, but it sure is nice to have money so you can enjoy a higher standard of living. [editline]21st November 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=Pockets;26150337]I'm in a similar situation as you OP, only I have no family to speak of other than my mom, and I generally move from state to state every year or so, while moving to different studio apartments every 3-6 months. The longest I've ever lived in a single place has been 13 months, all because my mom is, well, [i]paranoid.[/i] But yeah, shitty living conditions all around, and my mom refuses to get government aid out of pride, so my life can get hilariously low-class at times. And I wouldn't have it any other way. I've known a lot of rich people in my life, and they're all assholes. No question about it. They way they think is entirely centered around owning more expensive furniture and cars, making more money, getting ahead in the pointless rat race living life with no purpose other than social status. Well, I'll take my generic soda and cramped living quarters and used clothing over that any day.[/QUOTE] Generalisations, generalisations My family is relatively rich, but I do not seek the values that the assholes, you've met, look for.
If i was rich i would have enough money to get whatever i want AND Gift Steam Games or other materials to friends and donate to the salvation army :buddy:
[QUOTE=Earthen;26208532]"I don't need drugs to have fun!" yeah, you don't NEED money to have fun, but it sure is nice to have money so you can enjoy a higher standard of living. [/QUOTE] for me, not having a lot of money makes life better. I mean, I know I can't go out and buy that Boombox Ipod dock I want, or get new clothes every week, but I feel like I earn my meals, and when I bug out and go on camping journeys out in the woods, money doesn't even come into my mind. [editline]21st November 2010[/editline] also one of things I like about working class people is they speak their mind. They won't act all bitchy and nice to your face, if you've pissed them off, they [I]will[/I] let you know.
[QUOTE=strayebyrd;26156404]I'd hate to be rich, rich kids I know are all cunts. I'd rather work for what I get rather than have it handed up to me. Besides one of my life ambitions is to hitch across america and live a pretty hoboish life, so money wouldn't really help there.[/QUOTE] I go to a private school and over half of the rich kids aren't assholes...

[editline]21st November 2010[/editline] Again; generalisations, generalisations[/QUOTE] You might not think the rich kids are assholes because you're spending every day with them, but where I'm from, rich kids are mostly pretty dumb and don't have any real life experience. It's not really generalisation either, is it? I'm talking about people I know. hence the "rich kids [I]I know[/I] are all cunts"
I've never had, and probably never will, have any problems with money. I am very privileged to have rich parents.

Good thing I'm rich.
