    Weird how I’ve seen a number of rich people do all of those things, and they continue to be rich.

    It’s gotta be something else…

    Video Games being on the list is hilarious. Ever since the death of the arcade, those are some of the least expensive things I buy for how long I use them. Paid $20 for Factorio, Dyson Sphere Program, Terraria, and Vintage Story. I have thousands of hours in the first three and around 500 hours in VS.

      If I stay in school forever, I’ll never pay it back. I’m taking these negative numbers with me to conscripted war and/or the grave!

    Just remember, we could house every single person on earth when it doesn’t concern capitalism. We make double the amount of food every day to feed every person on earth every day and we toss but still have homeless and hungry. Just remember that.

    Don’t forget eating food will generally make you poor, and renting a cardboard box on the side of the road will cost you $10,000 with a $3,000 go fuck yourself fee

    I impulse buy a lot. That is not in any way making me poorer, though. For reference, I impulsively buy pens and yarn.
