no amount of money can solve your problems

This is deep son.

Money could solve 95% of all my problems

 

[Jack Reacheround]

Right? Anything in excess of 10k would radically change my life. Even 10k would pay all my debt down and buy a better car with cash to spare. People that think money doesn't fix problems always sound sheltered as fuck to me. When you're struggling to get by, money does a lot.

Yeah, it doesn’t directly fix everything. But it allows you to do what you have to to fix everything.

Mortgages brother. I get alternative high interest rate financing for all the people who can’t qualify for a mortgage with the bank.

Bad credit, foreigners, criminals, low income, no probable income, self employed.

you guys caused the '08 crash.

 

[PRIDEWASBETTER]

you guys caused the '08 crash.

I was waiting for this. lol

 

[Mike]

you guys caused the '08 crash.

They definitely helped. There was so much dirty shit going on for decades that lead to that crash.

Gotta love the governments solution too, hey lets give them a huge blank check to pay their bonuses out of, and let's not put anyone in jail.

If you're going to steal, you just have to make sure it's high level white collar crime, and it's consequence free. It's sad that the average person seems to be too dumb to put together what happened there.

Gotta give em credit for making the financial industry so convoluted, that only economists really grasp when massive fraud is taking place.

Let's try to keep this thread out of WR territory. It's actually a pretty solid topic.

 

[BEER]

i would be more specific and say that once your NEEDS are met, your WANTS will only make you marginally more happy, temporarily. imo, happiness does not come from wants.

Yeah. Get some money in your wallet before you start shitting memes about what money means lmao. Not everyone, or even most, who crave money crave hedonism.

I'm grateful that all my problems can pretty much be solved by money. I work in sales also and it is the biggest relief to get a nice commission. Close more deals and only problem you will have is saving the money vs spending it.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Being broke makes everything worse. Money won't solve your problems but it certainly helps

 

[Nameless Ghoul]

I mean, maybe not "solve" your problems, but it can afford you some leeway and allow you to do fun things and enjoy/experience life more.

 

[Fedorgasm]

Money solves most problems.

It solved OJ's murder rap.
It solved Magic Johnson's HIV.
It solves the problems of you not having enough drugs, sex, or entertainment.

I think there's only 3 things it can't solve.
1. Mortality (although it can extend life a bit)
2. Mental illness
3. Challenge/conquest. This is why some rich guys are depressed. There's no challenge left. It would be like if life were the only video game you can ever play and you've already beaten it several times. This is also why some rich guys just constantly try to get richer, even though they have more money than they could ever spend.

Anyone that says money can't solve your problems has no money.

Money doesn’t give you happiness or solve your problems but it does give you freedom. Freedom to say fuck I feel stressed....you know what? I’m going to spend 3 weeks in the Bahamas relaxing by the beach

 

[HunterSdVa29]

i mean what if your problem is debt?

money certainly solves that, right?

Money can’t solve everything. But it can solve a ton of problems. The problems that money can’t solve, can be solved with violence. I don’t care what people say, violence has been solving problems since the beginning of civilization.

That sounds like buying happiness to me.

Just bang some random chick, then push her into the arms of another man and judge her for it.

That should make you feel better.

Don’t forget to make a sherdog thread about it.

Not doing that shit again.

Nah dude, you just sound average. I was making 50 when I got out of college, was fine. Got a big ass raise at the next job, 30%, thought damn son u in the money now. Was able to save a good bit for awhile - but "for awhile" stopped eventually, you change your spending habits slowly... Most people grow into the income they are making eventually, unless they are super diligent. .

This is so true.

I don't even like telling people how much I make, because most of the people I know make less than me, and they'll think, "You make what? And you're still driving that old car? And living in that same small house?" Then I have to get into a whole discussion about my spending habits. Poor people just don't understand.

 

[Fedorgasm]

My income has increased at least 40% every year for the past 4 years.

20k -> 38k
38k -> 52k
52k -> 80k
80k -> 120k

.

Those are huge jumps for such a short period of time. What do you do for a living?
