Don't hate you , don't hate me, if it's about MEASURING you can always check and compare penis size too.

In general, according to Castaneda, the best thing you can do is tying up
your show lace fine.

Be rich in soul not rich in material things. Dont get me wrong im working towards buying a lambo. But when i do get one i dont even want people to know it is me cruising past them.

the global economy kind of depends on the wests need for over consumerism doesn't it?

One thing i love about threads like these are the amount of people it flushes out claiming they are debt and credit free... by my numbers nobody in adult uses a credit card or takes out a loan to buy a house or a car.

Just like the rest of us, i have credit and i have debts, I'm not happy about it but its true, but at least i can admit it ;)

That in my opinion describes how we are governed here in the US.

Or that I make enough money to run 50 grand a month through my credit cards and pay them each month?

That would be my guess as to why I'm better than you. :1orglaugh

Just kidding...I don't blatantly feel that way at all about other people. But I do take pride in kicking ass and outworking my peers to run circles around a lot of them. I have a competitive personality and can't help that.

a good number of people who try and put on this attitude also don't make the money to back it up and end up losing everything. big difference if you can actually afford to live that way instead of on credit that the person should never of gotten in the first place.

Yes it does. But what if it depends on its crash also?

the west was propped up. we were really convinced for a while we are any different. that we are immune to the "outside worlds problems".

we were built to be raped. nothing more nothing less.

Dont feel bad we have the same thing here in canada. it is all over europe now also.

but i would say it is a big problem in the usa. the patriotism has become blinded and mis directed.

success = happiness. happiness can be all sorts of things. its just plain fact that the majority of people in the world will never acheive real financial success.

You guys need to shut the fuck up about Americans, because it isn't just Obama and Bush but all world leaders that believe in the insane irrational cult -- bullshit Keynesian economics, and Keynes stupid ideas govern what governments all around the world do. They all think that a country gets rich not by producing something but by consuming something. All these powerful people believe this shit and force it on all of us, and you want to worry about some redneck charging up his credit card? He is just doing what he was lead to do by his government. It doesn't matter if I hold no credit card debt and pay off all my shit if the government thinks the government itself spending money like crazy is going to "help us all" and so they inflate the shit out of the national currency and make all my savings worthless

"west" is a mentality. a made up one that is for sure.

Either you woke up today and realized you wasted the last 7 years of your life posting bullshit and trolling, or the Rep Mod all of a sudden makes you want to post something of quality to add little green squares beside your name.

Either way, onto the discussion at hand.

I think warren buffett has always had it right.

"Of the billionaires I have known, money just brings out the basic traits in them. If they were jerks before they had money, they are simply jerks with a billion dollars."

So yeah, it does feel kinda good to have people say "Nice car!" or "I love your house". I know, it sound dumb and shallow (it is), but I'm only human.

So happiness in your book is what other people think of your possessions and not the possessions themselves?

Is that how you read what I said? I don't believe I ever said "happiness" is anything in this subject.

"Happiness" is when I cum. "Happiness" is when I'm playing guitar and everything just falls into place and every note sounds gold. "Happiness" is when I'm throwing the ball with my dogs, or at an amusement park with my kids.

I have no idea where you decided to throw something as abstract and all-encompassing as "Happiness" into this.

This thread was about how some people think they are better than others because of the money that they have earned and things they have bought themselves with that money.

Does having a nice house make me "Happy"? Hell yes! Is it my "happiness"?...don't be stupid.

Please find one post of me where I have ever claimed to be rich. You will not find a single one. I do bang hot women, you just proved you only equate banging hot women with money.

i have something you lack it is called a personality. i dont have to switch gears or be in gear for anyone. i work for myself and control my own life.

you on the other hand are still someones right hand jerk off man. never forget that. so when i do become "rich and successful" i wont even remember you. because i work for myself not to explain something to wannabes whos main thing in life is to show up to trade shows and brag about a company like it is mine.

now go and run to your GFY buddies how you cant believe i talked back to you again. I WORK FOR BANG BROS DAMMIT! RESPECT ME!!! I AM AN OLD SCHOOL GFY MEMBER!!!!

haha oh god. When do you possibly have time for a personality? 25000 posts on gfy about attempting to portray an image as a pussy slaying monster. You won't be the first nor the last guy to lie on the internet. I honestly feel sorry for you. You probably hide so much about you, because you have not accomplished anything. It's gotta be hard to see all the people around you actually become successful.

The reality about you is you are nothing you attempt to portray. That is why

1) Nobody knows what you do
2) You contribute nothing around here
3) You have never shown up at a trade show
4) You waste your time posting useless shit all day

Those are the 4 necessary ingredients for being a useless troll.

Keep on Keeping on man. Someday you will be rich and successful, something I can only dream about working for the man. I hope i get paid for this overtime as the clock ends at 5pm!!

HAHA keep trying man. i know you want to understand me sooo bad. but keep trying.

those are the exacts point, i dont give a fuck about your points. i dont want to be a "somebody" with you "wannabe somebodies" who are really "NOBODIES". i want to be a nobody in your circle. dont you get it? :1orglaugh

Lots of people know here what I do. the ones that dont is the same group of losers that has been tanking for the past 5 years blaming guys like me. who in reality as stated above have 0 to do with them.

so please get off your high horse. you chose to come in my thread. you chose to post. and if you choose to realize you wont be staring at the same 4 walls in your office everyday for the next 10 years well that is up to you.

as stated above no i am not rich. but i get up and work towards my own business daily. and would rather make less then have to lie to myself. i am a longterm thinker. you can have your money today. i want it for a lifetime.

Ya man you are real successful, you work for a business SOMEONE ELSE BUILT and you are "known" on a message board. (even though more people here probably know me).

Some of you around here think you are the big dogs of the industry it is HILARIOUS! no one gives a fuck about you anymore. get over it!

but good on you chap. :1orglaugh

Cool Man, it's just gotta be embarrassing for you at the end of the day. I am sure in those 10 years, you will have 200,000 posts and not a nickel to show for it. Hopefully by then I will at least have the infamous retirement gold watch and the respect of thousands more gfy members.

You have a lot of anger inside man! keep on posting if it helps you cope! we are all here to help!

haha if you are human and have no anger inside you are a complete liar. i channel my anger into my work now.

at least i "woke up" and am young enough to start fresh. a lot of people dont have that opportunity.

if you didnt notice you are the one talking about post count continually. i could really care less.

thats the point though if you judge me im going to judge you. just that simple. even a thread you admitted i had a "change" in you still find the need to come in and trash it anyway.

it really shows how you are a very weak person. you can have my gold watch man. and you and the GFY bros can hold it like power rangers. connect them together and BOOM you will run the internet!

you go man! GO TO YOUR ICQ LIST AND TELL THEM HOW MEAN I AM! you do it dude! YOU GO TO THOSE TRADE SHOWS CAUSE YOU ARE THE MAN!

im going back to my cave now. i will be lucky to get internet connection in here.
