What a douche bag.

[dank]

He's right, you have to believe in yourself and only let positive influences hold control over your life.  You must act with your conscience, not your ego.

[Atlas]

Why is this man a douche? What is wrong with limiting your obligations until you can easily meet them?

[jasinlee]

Found the accounts owner. Yeah, then leave it on a receipt and tell everyone how they screwed up their life by having kids, friends or a life before working toward building up a fat bank account because thats all that really matters.

Found the accounts owner.

How can you meet the needs of the many if you're broke and barely producing?

Found the accounts owner.

How can you meet the needs of the many if you're broke and barely producing?

By focusing on what matters to you, not taking advice from people who are detached from reality.

Isn't that exactly what the note says?

[jasinlee]

Yes, I am trying to simplify it into a more pure douchey explanation.

Then, care to answer the question?

How can you meet the needs of the many if you're broke and barely producing?

That is kinda broad. Just because you are not rich does not make you broke or barely producing. But my answer would be, raise your kids to be good people and it should all work out in the end. I have 3 kids and I hate money, and we are happy and keep a roof over our heads, and feed and clothe ourselves. My wife does not work, this is a single income home, you don't have to kill both parents to bring your kids up so they can all have some status symbol they think they need (iPhone, cool shoes, etc). Once 1 generation of kids is raised to have a good moral set of values, they wont all (not to say some wont but we are talking about the needs of the many here) grow up to be money hungry dicks that think just because you are not rich, well you must be a lazy piece of crap who never put out enough effort to get rich like them.

TL;DR: Don't let your kids to grow up to be assholes.

My girlfriend has studied psychology and this way helps young people with difficult background (violation, drugs, ...) to find their way back to life. She focuses very hard on this tasks, but she cannot get rich this way, although I think it's very important. Instead her real income decreases every year.

Most people have no chance to get rich, mostly the honest ones. It's a bad time.

With the exception of the ones with mental issues, most people do have a chance to become rich. But they would have to work hard and smart on their dream.

One person could take the pet rock idea and market it in a way that has never been done before. Another person could start an automobile plant completely different than the way it's been done. The later should sound familiar.

Well said.

So many people spend their lives chasing money, more fool them.

As for that note, lol.

Are you dreaming? Work as hard as Paris?

Working hard means working hard for the rich, not for yourself, these times.

The bank account balance is freedom? Yes, freedom for the bank to take all your money and lose it.

Yes, we need them, because they mostly take too much risk, and after their collapse accountants, advocates, and perhaps medicals have a lot of new work to do.

I remind that a few decades before the boss of a company could become rich and end in the gutter after serious mistakes. And Today? Be a greasy guy gambling with other peoples money (John Paulson for example), and vanish with a big bonus after the crash. Let the crooks run (Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, for example) after making arrangements, that the normal people have to pay.

Enough for me with neo-liberalism.

One mans freedom is another mans slavery. The receipt shows the selfishness and the egocentricity of the owner.

If money is slavery, the solution if to transfer the money to me. I'll gladly take it.
