Why do you all think I don't want to contribute anything?
Because you refuse to get a job. And you're under the delusion that
there's another way. I just got done telling you that if you want
to be an entrepreneur, first you need to WORK to get the startup
capital. If you want another way to contribute, join the
peace corps or the army... that's the only options.
Being a serial dreamer/moocher/borrower isn't contributing.
I'm trying to grow food, give people a place to live and create music to help people find meaning and inner peace in their life, is that nothing?
Trying isn't the same thing as accomplishing. I could TRY
to become an NBA basketball player but it would never happen.
One needs to be realistic with their potential and with what
they can probably accomplish within a certain amount of time.
You are completely unrealistic about what you think you can
accomplish, especially when it comes to being a community
leader, musician, and philosopher. You're an amateur at best.
Maybe you could be somebody someday, but you need to
work until then. I bet your parents have told you the same
thing, haven't they?
I could become a corporate CEO
No you couldn't. At least, not without getting off the drugs,
and putting in years or decades of hard work.
I have spent several years of my life researching and sharing my knowledge with the world, free of charge. Philosophers are paid an average of $80,000+ annually, yet I am somehow less of a contributor because I share what I know for free.
Because your freely shared knowledge isn't worth paying anything for.
You haven't elevated it to a commercial level, plain and simple.
That doesn't make you a bad person, but it does mean that you
aren't contributing anything that someone wants to pay for, and
therefore, you need to find something else to do as a profession.
Is this concept too hard for you to grasp?
Why don't you do something with your life other than shilling/bullying young people on the internet?
First of all, I do. I pay my own way in life with
money that i've earned through my own efforts.
Secondly, I'm not bullying you. I don't follow
you around telling you how you need to live.
YOU are the one starting threads asking for money.
I'm merely part of the universe that's responding.
You do realize it would take several years to get where I need to go by working a day job this day and age, right? Squall would get his money maybe three years from now, it would take me at least a year before I am able to produce music and play guitar in a suitable environment.
Better get started then working that day job.
You'll make money at that way faster than
trying to be a guitarist, especially considering
your current musical skills. It takes years and
decades to become a pro musician.
Want me to get a job? Don't create a society as shitty as this one.
The world is shitty, so you're just going to
give up on trying to earn an honest day's pay
and be a mooch. Sounds like defeatism.
Sounds like hidden laziness. Sounds like
rationalization. Doesn't sound powerful.
One day you all will appreciate everything I have done for you.
I appreciate you posting amusing stuff. I respond because
its fun, but I hope one day you'll grow up... for your own sake.
And one day (I hope) you will appreciate all my posts and advice.
