OMG Music, how true is that? hahahahahahahahahahahahaha, fellow rat.

I am with you on Spring and Autumn. New flowers and everything blooms turns green and sprouts, new growth. Autumn is wonderful, seasons change (ugh, I know what is right around the corner) leaves change colors and drop but it is still beautiful. I would much rather be in CA for the off seasons or my other favorite place forever lol.

But that is the human condition, especially if you are employed. All people compete, whether it is for food, shelter, money or other achievements.

Alaska? Be prepared for the beauty of the Mountains. You need airplanes to get around the State.

Plus the Sun never sets in Summer.

Here is a riddle, You live in a building with all four walls facing South. What color is the bear? Answer: You will be living on the North Pole so the bears there are Polar Bears. White in color, indeed.

It is just the rat race . The problem with the rat race is that when you win or lose you are still a rat.

I love the colors of Spring and Autumn. Wonderful things come in small packages.

I understand where you're coming from. My life is sucking the life out of me.

I'm still moving forward, but winning the lottery would let me hit reset on the book of my life instead of just moving to the next mediocre chapter.

I'd love to move someplace with culture and opportunities for self improvement that small town southern living doesn't offer. I'm not asking for much, just art lessons for someone too old for summer camp and some cooking lessons, maybe even a museum or two.... [ More ]

l had to look up this answer Coin Toss, but it would seem that Buddhists do not see wealth as intrinsically evil. I guess wealth is welcomed, just as long as you willing to share with the less fortunate.My * beef would be with the incessant chanting. However, to each he's own.

I actually have my friend in South Carolina who is going to get me doing wiring tv stuff, internet streaming media, sell a whole package for consumers, amazon stuff.

My mom thinks by me getting a job paycheck will do and company benefits. Not so fast. When my sites really go through the roof and sales start surging and I make serious money, the lottery is the back burner.

I want to do what the Michigan guy did. He makes millions selling.

I'm not sure but don't monasteries require a vow of poverty?

Win a jackpot and make such a vow?

Maybe Megaballz meant just visiting one.

You got that right CT. I will go along with the first two wishes. But the monastery or any place of worship is an absolute not! If one wants to get away from it all that leads in another direction, away from a place of silence.

It's no wonder you rarely find a church with an ocean view. People ask why? It's simple, if the sermon is boring, the congregation can always pay attention to that girl in a skimpy outfit or the guy with a buffed bod.

As for where l would go? It's an open secret: Se... [ More ]

90% of the world's population lives this way. And If they're in the 150 grand a year range and up, they'll still have non-financial problems.

Unless you live in isolation like Howard Hughes, interaction with people is inevitable.

Uh, win a lottery and gp to a monastery?

You might want to read the book God Is My Broker.

A poster here once posted out that with a jackpot win you just trade one set of problems for another.

I hear so much of myself in the OP post. I am often fed up and frustrated with life. I admit I fantasize how a lottery win would change my circumstances. I am in the process of making changes to my life. My Realtor told me live a life by design . Changing my hair, and buying my first home is the start of my new life. Cheers

Everyone feels like that on occasion...even if you have a great job and are financially comfortable. Things always look better in the morning. Never play the lottery out of desperation. It is just the rat race. Notice the small things like the spring flowers, etc.

Well Done Perfecttiming2

With one thing taken with another, a couple of thoughts .....

Question is how can you conspire with life to create the best possible future for yourself ?

Hi Megaballz!

I think there may be other people who can relate to what you are going through and my answer is still the same...you should learn how to deal with these issues BEFORE any financial windfall comes your way.

Regarding other people:

There is a book called Boundaries by Cloud/Townsend that is really helpful in dealing with toxic people/relationships (you should be able to find it on Amazon).

This book will help you to teach others what you will tolerate and what you wo... [ More ]

You are not alone. There is help. Like 1 - 800 numbers for suicidal prone persons. If you are a Veteran than there is help for you too. I am sure that most of us go through rough patches in life. Be well.

Might explore some caretaker opportunities. Or perhaps something like Kwajalein logistics support.
