I've been thinking. What do most people do these days? Work. Why? So with the meesly amount of money we make we can live our lives more comfertably. Right? I don't think so. People work their asses off everyday to bring home a paycheck. I figure 75% of that paycheck goes towards bills of some kind (house, car, insurance, hospital, electric, gas, etc). Then 20% goes towards food, clothes, gas and other items people need to contimue to work and care for children. That leaves 5% of the paycheck to do whatever the hell we want to do with it. So that's like saying we only get 5% of our lives with which we can enjoy our selves and have fun. Some people don't even have that. Some poeple have no money to enjoy themselves with. Afterall, you can't do anything these days without money.

That's why I haven't worked a standard 9 to 5 type job in over two years. I can't hack it. For some people, the regularity, the patterns, and the security are nice, but for me it drives me nuts. I need money to survive like everyone else, but I am not the type who can be in the same place at the same time doing the same thing day after day. Even small repetitive tasks get to me. Sure, at this point I don't have much money, in fact I'm pretty broke, but at least I am working for MYSELF and not some jackass corporation. I don't need that corporate shit!
