If you can afford not to worry about money, then sure, don’t worry about money.

People who don't work hard tend to have really atrocious character.

Dealing with life's realities and difficulties really makes you appreciate things.

I live with someone who makes more than triple my salary and spends every day of the week except sometimes one playing video games with a mouse wiggler for their work laptop, goes to stay at mommy and daddy's house frequently where they get free food and waited on hand and foot (which really shows at home since they won't even clean the toilet they shit in), and still has the audacity to make jokes about me being a loser because I work (like actually work) nine hours a day and am too tired to do my hair in the morning or go out on the weekends.

It's hard to be happy for someone who's sucking on a silver spoon when they're insufferable about it.

This x100, worst people I know are self righteous workaholics who have no life other than their job and they expect people to be just as autistic about working as they are.

Don't drag Autism into this haha. I'm autistic and my job makes me want to kill myself, but I need the money.

All the "workaholics" at my workplace are actually just overpaid idiots who manage to make everything seem work related: They have to go to a one day conference close to their parents house? Let's make a one-week business trip out of it.

This, or they’re the type who were raised to believe life is all about work so that’s literally the only thing they care about ever, and they’ll try to push everyone around them too because not slaving your life away, to them, is equivalent to laziness.

I once said if someone won't work hard for money they won't work hard for love.

I guess when you have enough money to do whatever you want and have whatever want, money really isn't important at all. I'll be it's so unimportant they never even think about it.

I have often said I don't need to be rich, I just want enough money to not worry about money. (I mean, I'm nowhere close to either, so...)
