You’re right it won’t buy happiness but it can buy you freedom from wage cuckoldry which can buy you time(a priceless commodity) to work on yourself and find what makes you happy and then be able to follow those pursuits. If you’re a miserable loser with no drive money will just make it worse because it strips away the illusion that not having cash is why you felt bad.

OP is right. In 2014, Eminem wrote a song called Headlights, in which he apologizes to his mother about the things he said about her at the start of his career. One interesting part of that song in the end chorus, when he writes "I want a new life. Start over."
Eminem fucking made it, he has more money than 99% of anons here will ever have even after making it themselves, He made it but he lost his mother and wife long the way, and today he says he'd trade everything for a chace to try again, to start fresh.
Money is not everything, anons, chase your gains but fon't forget what you already have.

I wonder why belief in the soul has gone away. I think it is pride and arrogance. Humans have become so amazed at the complex system of science they have derived from the world that they believe the system itself to take precedence over reality. If simple human models can predict reality so well, perhaps those models are all there is.
They don't know about the struggle it took to get there. Or how things go outside the system.

Plenty of systematic studies have been done on this topic and the result are clear. Above the point where you have enough money so you aren't struggling day by to put food on the table, there is zero correlation between wealth and happiness. That is because happiness is primarily a function of how you process your experience. The vast majority of humans in the first world, no matter where on the income spectrum, have a choice of processing their experience in a way that produces happiness or not. Richard Cory is real.

Look you dumb motherfucker, I'm not a materialistic person just because I chase money.

You know what money definitely does buy? Comfort. You know what's uncomfortable as fuck? Being flat broke and not being able to see a way out.

>meditate
>clean up your diet
>start exercising
>take care of your appearance
>get a social hobby like MMA or yoga
>have another creative pastime like doing art or learning another language
>find some form of religion or spirituality
In that order, daily meditation is key and learning to catch negative thoughts and redirect them. If you do all that and stay with it for a year and you don’t start to improve you need god.

I fucking wish I could find a woman who wants to live a simple life. They all move to the big cities and whore around. I just want a fertile cutie to homestead with who will churn butter and help me homeschool our 4 kids.
WHERE THE FUCK DO I FIND A WOMAN LIKE THAT

This. I'm completely broke. I have ZERO business savvy and am trying to learn. I'm so fucking broke that it took me 2 years to renew my license because of living in butt fuck nowhere and having to pay for $100+ in uber rides. Just because it's livable at this wage doesn't mean you should. If you can escape this and get financial freedom while maintain morality, you should do it.

"Happiness is the meaning of life" is one of the biggest memes ever and we all know it.
