Why do you want to become/marry a millionaire?

[Luopio27]

Only reason I ever wanted to be anything more than a minimum wage worker at McDonalds or a factory, is to get the acceptance of the cutest/prettiest girls.


But girls who are atractive enough to get any man they want, why isn't the minum wage lifestyle good enough?

Also now that Im older, I wonder why do we as humans support the ideology that one small group lives like Gods/Kings while the rest in the ordinary world and even more people in the third world.

I forgot. Here in Finland, the minimum wage is OK. Not luxury, but enough to make a living.

If I was with the hot girl, I wouldn't want anything more.

Hmm, life is sort of a slope in regards to finance and how much cash a person has etc. first bit, not all people want to become or marry a millionaire, a lot just want to make their own way in life and work hard for what they can achieve. I know people in £1million house, that have very little cash to live with, equally I know people with £200k houses with a fair bit of cash to live with.

As far as minimum wage goes, it is a minimum and not a living wage, you cannot survive on it unless you have state assistance in other areas. It will not feed a family.

To have more money. I'm no longer living out of my car and teetering on the brink of malnutrition-induced disease from surviving off of restaurant ketchup packets, but going through that makes you understand just how fragile a better situation really is.

I don't want to put in the necessary work to become a millionaire; I much prefer the lower stress lifestyle, even if it means less wealth. But I want to be DAMN sure I never wind up homeless again.

You are starting the question with the erroneous assumption that every single person wants to be a millionaire or marry one. Just because you have that desire, it doesn't mean that every single person has that desire. Some of us do not wish to see ourselves in that situation for multiple reasons.

that's just a bunch of nonsense

What part, sir?

[NathanDavis]

90% of it...

but let's focus on the minimum wage being enough... where in the USA are they blessed enough, for a minimum wage to make a decent living nowadays... lol
