i gave up multiple opportunities for a great career just so i could stay close to my family. I have zero regrets. I chose to follow my heart and it has lead to a great life.

You supposed go find some swamp donkey and nut inside of her so she shits out a kid; that way your brain goes into to primal child rearing/provider mode and you have a reason to being home the bacon.

Your parents felt the same sense of aimlessness until they had you and your siblings.

That’s about as good as it’s going to get.

Speaking as a dad, who has family all over the country, your dad wouldn't think your wierd based on what time if year you visit. Just say it was a good time to get away from job and you missed them they will be happy.

I had nostalgia too today. My late teens were amazing and i had a insane peak mid twenties. Of cause everything went down hill from there. Listen to me baby. We are fine. Be thankful that you were allowed to live life at least ones or twice. Personally i am ready now. Ready for the happening. See you on the battlefield.

Saw this thread and just wanted to say I bought a ps1 the other day. Me and my brother spent the day looking for games, we ended up buying beyblades as well. Came back to mine and played with them and the par. Got a disc swap to work for muppets racing, one of our favourites. Probably one of the best days we've have together since we were kids since we're both in our 20s and work different times so we don't see alot of each other. Really brought back the memories and what op said, that it's all just about the time spent not making money. Also found out the ps1 was modded after he left, I've burnt like 10 of our favourites for the next time he's over.

At least you had a nice childhood.
My childhood was a screen. I have no connection with my father and mother. Nor do I have any friends after school. No friends at work. The Only Thing I have is money, so don't you fucking go around saying life isn't about money when money is literal happiness.

How does it taste? We don't have root beer here in France, but burgers seems to really enjoy it. What is it made from?

soda with a flavor similar to licorice, except with a bitter kick to it. it is american because it can only be made from a tree growing in north america, sassafras

You're starting to take the red pill. You're breaking your conditioning.

Stop being a slave. When you're about to die you won't regret not working more, but you will regret not spending it with your family, or being happy.

You already have enough money to retire and "live many lifetimes"? And yet instead of retiring and neeting it up, you continue wagecucking and even do things like:
>stayed in late at work tonight even tho office was empty

Why???
Most anons on biz could only hope to have enough "to live many lifetimes".

What a fucking touching story anon.

You see... I'm studying finance at the colleage, and right now I'm obssesed with the idea of becoming a top tier broker, so I've been investigating about apps to start using my new knowleage and habilities. I guess I'm gonna start working te next year.

But then, sometimes... I guess that dream will affect me more than good, because I'd surely become a workaholic, and I'll forget to pass a good time with friends and family.

Thank you for open my eyes, anon. Sure I'll become the best goddamn broker out there, but now one, my hapiness is first than anything else

Hope you will read this sometime, someday... somewhere

Become the best broker you can be, and donate a portion of your earnings every year to causes that you care about. Those times when you think "fuck this world, why is it this way" your money should be used to make it not that way anymore
