Rich and alone.

I don't believe that love helps.

Rich and alone. I'm not a family person and I like having an excessive amount of food.

Well if you look at it, not to sound like I'm a filthy, greedy, scum of the earth kind of guy, but I believe that money is everything. Not exactly but money makes up human nature doesn't it? Looking at both perspectives, both lives have it hard. I don't want to believe that everything is made of money but it's kind of true. It bothers me when people say money isn't everything. Of course it is. In this day and age without money it's hard to get by in life. A lot of people say they hate the rich but aren't we just a little tad jealous of the freedom they can spend? Don't get me wrong I at times hate them too but I look at myself and tell myself if I work hard I can achieve their success too and benefit my family and I. If I also have a little extra I can donate. People say money isn't everything, that's just what everybody wants to hear but in reality it's the opposite.

If I had a choice I would just go with not that rich and not too poor.

I enjoy spending money but since there's not a lot that I want myself I end up spending on others too. So if I was to somehow become super rich it would be impossible to be unloved when I'd spend most of it on others since a lot of my own desires aren't really bought with money (or at least atm they aren't).

Rich and alone for sure, that would be so much easier than having to be constantly worried
about putting food on the table for me AND my family.

Plus I would probably have very little privacy and things of my own, I'm already really sick of having my annoying sister as a roommate, and if I lived in poverty I would have even less privacy and space. I can barely even change clothes, eat in the bedroom, go on this website, or do p rivate things in peace without having to worry about her or someone else coming in
from outside and bothering me.

If by poor, you mean just having an average job living paycheck to paycheck, then I'd rather be poor and loved. Money doesn't always equal happiness, and what's the point of being rich if you can't share them with someone you love?

There are levels to this shit.

People say money can't buy happiness. I say, you didn't spend enough money.

Probably because you haven't lived that way yet. The grass is always greener on the other side.

I'd have a medium salary and a normal relationship instead. Too much passion, too high or low of a salary can create all sort of problems.

'poor' is such a reductive phrase to describe a rustic, outdoorsy lifestyle

i'd take the latter option any day, though

Poor and loved, of course. What's the use of having limitless resource if you have nothing to do with it and no one to share it with?

But how about option three: financially stable and tolerated. That's about as good as it's gonna get for most people.

You'll be rich but alone, everyone that wants to know you is for the money you have. You do have family but they're vicious snakes that take every opportunity to end your life so they can inherit the fortunes for themselves.

Poor but loved, you live in a poor neighbourhood, a rundown house, but you have a loving family. problem is, there's no jobs going around. To put food on the table you have turned to crime and your partner prostitutes themselves to feed the children and to prevent them from doing the same.

These are the situations, which of these would you rather live in?
Lol at this extreme hypothetical scenarios. Both choices sound like shit, I would go for the former.

By the way money can at least indirectly "buy" happiness especially if you're a male since women take socioeconomic position of a man seriously when they are looking for a significant other.

Love can motivate you to provide and care for your partner, but the chance of her leaving you behind is realistically more likely than you gaining financial success with love, love is harder to translate to money than the other way around.

I don't exactly need love to live but I do need my basic needs met which being rich will do for me. I was born alone and I will die alone, everyone in your life is merely along for the ride.

That said I already have love while I am seeking riches so I can have both.
