I disagree. I work 72 hrs a week . I get home in time to watch most sporting events. No matter how hard I study, I'm never making 50 mill a year. So he's an idiot

Nah, you're misinterpreted my words. I'm not shaming anyone.

I don't care who has an iPhone or not. In fact i want people to have smartphone because you can expand your mind and skills on them, but mfs would rather watch tiktoks and play bubble blast.

As far as YouTube and twitch you don't have to make money. I play in adult leagues. We aren't trying to make money (and we don't) but we share what we do with others, anyone can come watch us play and when it opens up there are usually a few people that join and they say "I saw you guys playing, looks fun" "i used to play back in the day, thought I'd try to get back into it"

I'm not shaming anyone. I want peoples lives to be enriched and fulfilled. I don't think consuming hours upon hours of entertainment is going to do that. I think a lot of people spend their lives not meeting their potential and not applying themselves and i don't think they use their time wisely.

I don't even hate entertainment like that. shyt if you can watch every episode of game of thrones while on a treadmill. That's an hour a day (i think, I've never seen the shyt) for 70 days or some shyt...that's awesome. Just walk and watch the episode. I know people that are unfulfilled don't enjoy it. If you're fat, you know your fat and don't want to be that way for whatever reason. If you're dumb or uneducated or unskilled, you know it and don't want to be that way for whatever reason. I want to push you toward your goal. Us sitting around normalizing mediocrity and being broke ain't making anyone better. "yeah he weighs 320 but fukk it let him eat that pizza and those nachos and donuts." "She never went to college, she works an entry level job, barely has any money month to month but fukk it, let her enjoy her real housewives." He's been enjoying the junk food for years, she's been enjoying her real housewives for 9 seasons. When are things going to change for the better?


shyt one of my favorite videos games is the hunting simulator call of the wild. But with the time I can sink into walking around quietly, waiting, setting up shots i can literally go hunting for real. What's a better experience playing a game or doing something real?
My bad. The reality is most people aren't going to make it big. Society has to have a working class and the wealthy need a massive amount of people to exploit and treat like shyt so they can build their fortunes. The reality of it all is everyone can't make it. There has to be a bottom. Learning and acquiring skills or knowledge doesn't guarantee success in life either.

How many people go to college amass large amounts of student debt and get out and are told you need experience to get a job they went to school to get in the first place? They can't find work in their field and the loan has to be repaid so they get a mediocre job work it for years and are stuck. Some people meet the right people and never have to go through that.

He should be lecturing people to stop carelessly fukking and having kids. If anything the longer you delay having kids the better your odds at becoming financially stable. Once you start producing offspring the things you can easily do to change your direction in life shrink drastically. When you don't have kids you can easily make sacrifices and hard decisions and only have to answer to yourself.

I stated it in another post but I'm talking about life fulfillment, more than just monetary, income, success. I want people to be enriched, healthy, fulfilled mentally, emotionally, spiritually. There's a difference between being broke and having a broken lifestyle or being mentally broke, spiritually broke, emotionally broke. There's people with inconsistent income who are living their dreams and are fulfilled. Just as there are people with money who have nothing to show for it.

I tell people to always be working on their behind the scenes work. You can see the person in the nice car, or the person with the nice build (muscles), people who've accumulated homes or toys, people who can play guitar or piano really well but people don't see the behind the scenes work to get to that point. If you're watching marvel marathons and 8 seasons of game of thrones and 600 hours of GTA 5 or Zelda, you're not doing the behind the scenes work.

I disagree. I think some people have too many distractions, what they need is focus. Mfs are distracted by the things they have to do because they have so many things to do. People spend their lives chipping away, treading water, taking breaks, rewarding themselves for making it so far. More people die not having fulfilled or met their potential but had fun doing it, took breaks and allowed distractions.
Meanwhile you typing this bullshyt on an Internet forum :russ:

Ain't nothing wrong with using the Internet or playing video games, watching TV. It's a choice what you do and how often, there is also a level of honesty you have to have with yourself.

Just like people with no money or that need to be on a budget buying fast food, weed, cigarettes, alcohol, going to the club, buying clothes they don't need, or jewelry, video games, guns, etc...they know they shouldn't be spending money, they have bills, rent etc.

Like I said, it can be detrimental. If your posting when you should be doing something else, or if you can look back at the last year, 2 years or 3 years and you haven't accomplished anything, learned anything new, done anything different but you have 25,000 posts on a forum or 1000 hours of video games logged ..that's a problem.
