Sounds like a retarded question and probably is but this is how I see things... having a house, food, and insurance covered. Reading is free, Weight-lifting is free after buying weights, and enjoying the time you have is free (what more do you need?). I don't get the strive for $100,000 a year. The average American income is $24,000 and that is like a janitor's job. Make enough to know you don't have things so you can appreciate them. Will the huge house you barely live in be better than having a home that you can spend the time doing things to improve your life? (self-improvement is better in my mind. having the best toaster and the fastest cars isn't self-improvement) With coarse rice to eat, with water to drink, and my bended arm for a pillow - I have still joy in the midst of these things. Riches and honors acquired by unrighteousness are to me as a floating cloud. - Confucius, The Confucian Analects
