This life is all about money.

How does everyone survive in our capitalist money-based system? It takes money to exist in a life we never asked for. Most of us are forced to work a job we don't like just to have the privilege of staying alive. We also need a car in most of the USA because of how society is designed.

Pretty much, people care more about money than other people. Unless you're handsome or rich then nobody cares about you.

Money is the fuel of our society. When the own coal storage can't be restocked the fire of life will inevitably extinguish. It's the main reason why I have to consider CTB for myself before it gets worse.

The poor can neither afford to live nor pay for their death. Only the rich should procreate.

I agree completely. :( it's just unfortunate that money nor any of that can't make you happy~ You need all that stuff for the purpose of going beyond it and enjoying life~ so if you have less of it and don't get lucky, you're screwed.

I've got the suicide retirement plan.

All true. That is why billionaires like Elon Musk keep fear mongering about low population and keep encouraging reproduction. Without billions of people to buy their products and clean their toilets, they cannot live the life they like. CTBing is the only way out. That is why we should all do it, rather than contribute to this social prison house known as "living".

it has to be about money

 

[BlazingBob]

I'm going to be homeless because I'm too sick to make a living. I'm useless because I can't be productive due to debilitating health problems. I should be able to exit this world peacefully rather than rot in the gutter. You'd think more people would be in favor of our right to die considering how the homeless and the poor are treated.

Lot of people like to say that money isn't everything, while at certain degree it's true, it's not an universal truth we still needs money to pay our water and electricity bill

Having much money doesn't guarentee you hapiness but at least with a lot of money, you can try everything (like trying new hobby or spend your money in a way that will cure whatever problem that you had), not just using ur money to fulfil your primary needs

I actually kinda liked the job I used to do (gardening), but for relocation reasons I had to quit.

The problems were the constant pressure (but unfortunately many jobs are like that) and how hard it was on my body...

If you can you should work for yourself, so you aren't constantly pressed from your boss, being yelled at and then don't have to work 8 hours (which is ridiculous) and can do 6h which is more balanced...

If I'm doing a job I don't like (and even if I do), I always try to keep in mind that besides the benefit of being paid, I'm also providing a service to others, so that helps.

But yes, there is a lot of unnecessary suffering due to money and it's stupid because we could all have a better society for ALL, but we don't, because of greed and human stupidity...

Yeap, a lot of problems can be attributed to lack of financial capital but no, only a few have to have more money than they could possibly ever need while everyone barely gets by, what a fucking great society humanity has created.

Having money + Anhedonia = Feels really weird
