I might be the most successful on this forum when it comes to finances. I have done well for myself, and I have been blessed to be at the right place at the right time, many times in my life.
The problem for you guys is, when you get to what you think will be "enough", it isn't. Our system will crush you, there is no such thing as "**** you money" which was another lie about Trump. If I could just pack up and move to a country that I thought offered a future for the next generation, I would do so. Now that Hungry and Poland are selling out, it looks like there is nowhere to run. And that is a good thing, we have always ran. We ran from Europe due to the banker situation of the 1800's. We ran from the cities to the suburbs in the 1960's. We are now running from blue state to red state. Soon to the woods and hills. But they will chase you down.
So, that is what it appears I am stuck with. I will work 7 days a week until this thing crashes and it might be enough to allow me to survive afterwards and it might not, but at least I will know I tried. The reaction I get from people who find out I have worked 7 days a week for this long tells me both how little most have tried and how much trouble they will be in.
Chasing women, eating only tasty good, having kids and saying "they will figure it out" are all sins in my book. I am like that, and it has brought a lot of peace and reality to my life, and I am trying my best to share it while I can.
