midwest6102021 that wasn't meant for you. I was reading an earlier post from someone who just didn't want to work and wanted to lay around. I am not sure of the age of this person, but it seemed as if he/she was young.

I don't give a crap about money and I resent being forced to. Pieces of metal and sheets of paper that I can't make, yet that I need to live? That's garbage. I don't accept.
My focus right now is on finding a wife.
Why doesn't the world just let me live my life and trust I'll contribute to it in my own way? Instead, why does it want to make me hungry, cold, and destitute if I don't do as it wants me to? Who is making those rules? And what makes him think he gets to?
Someone may die because of this. Me. Or someone.
Troll post??? If not, if you think this way, there's not much anyone can do to help you.
I'm really confused as to why I must give up my time to another in order to be able to eat, live, and clothe myself. I'm on this giant ball with a bunch of other monkeys...and one day I will not be here at all...my time is slowly passing me by, leading me to inevitable nothingness...and you think for one second I'm going to allow any person or any group of people dictate what I must do with my time? It doesn't make sense to me that I have to spend half of my waking life doing something I don't want to do...in a routine...or else I'll be relegated to the streets...hungry, dirty and cold.
Don't get me wrong...I can be a hard worker..but it's on my terms, doing what I want, and getting money because of it has never been the goal. I rather wake up and read...or visit friends and family...or spend time with my wife...or write...or try to solve a problem...or anticipate one...or come to a realization, learn something..or meditate. I even like to think on how to cure cancer, or eradicate homelessness, or eliminate poverty. That's what I like to do, but I like to do those things when and how I want to, and not have them as responsibilities tied to me not eating if I don't.
So explain it to me why I don't get to live the life I want to live.
I've almost killed myself because of this...being told how I must live my life, or else end up homeless, up hungry and cold. I just can't bring myself to not live every second of my life exactly how I want to and when backed into a corner, I've nearly ended it.
I'm 24. Degreed. Have a business. Internship experience. And working experience. So, I'm not lazy. Or maybe I am...
I just don't want to do something I don't want to do for the next 40 years of my life. I mean, I'm dying here...I need to live my life. It's the only chance I'll get to, and someone dare make it so that I can't?
I hate it. I've shown up to work with tears streaming from my face, I hate it so much.
Advice? Other than go to a shrink and swallow a bunch of happy pills? This is no life at all.
Welcome to the real world -- your childhood is over, time to face reality -- be a bum or get a job.
The workforce brought me to my knees, 2.5 years ago I had a breakdown and havent worked since, largely because I was bullied (by management) and now have some sort of PTSD that is not resolving.
I have been abused for not working by people, to my face. Once I had a high flying career and was considered "smart", now people just figure I'm brain dead or something and fair game for whatever anger issues they have.
Just because I no longer have a "title" and a pay packet.
I'm still me.
Who supports you while you're "still me"? Are you expecting others to put in more time in their work so you can live the good life but not work for it yourself?
