Strider Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I have these fantasies about winning the lottery and become filthy rich. Then I start stressing out about where I will build my mansion(s) and what a pain in the ass it will be to have to deal with 100s of people to help me maintain my new lifestyle. Where is it written that if you are rich you have to have mansions? Or significantly change your lifestyle? I don't need maids and servants now and I don't see how having more money immediately necessitates that need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTM Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 well the sun out the drive to work will be great as the cd player will be ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon! its a three shift company well its usual in the work I do... outwardly the look is great as the family home is now payment is FINISHED... but as my funniest friend as said above happy and poor than a miserable bastard which isn't funnies as I`ve just stated I`ve done but I`ll state we used all our saving instead of losing our home with the state of the employment within United Kingdom. so yes poor and full of happiness yes. right see you all later. Good luck in your new job GF I have to say though I feel for you having to work a three shift system. Working days and nights isn't too bad but afternoon shifts they're horrible. The company I worked for had a three shift system for a couple of years about ten years ago, thankfully it was only for a couple of years, I loathed having to work afternoons 2 'till 10, absolutely hated it, the worst two years of my life,anyway there was a downturn so the afternoon shift was cancelled. Not to worry now though as three years ago I took early retirement so now my days are spent doing almost absolutely sweet ef-a...The wife keeps on at me though to find a part time job just to get me a bit more active, but you know what I can't be arsed.

Not having to worry about a mortgage is big burden removed. When we paid our home off it was the biggest sense of relief. It was fun burning the mortgage papers while we had a little camp fire. Knowing you are not going to be homeless really helps you see the upside in life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geekfreak Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 Today is Good Friday. The day after the Last Supper and one of the most important days on the Christian calender. The day Jesus gave his life on the cross for us. These 4 days are very important to me and to all Christians throughout the world. i would like to state my opinion that Mary Magdelane should be canonized a Saint by the Church and recognized as being as important if not more than most of Jesus's apostles.that's a great post as its the same for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles J. White Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I often wonder if addiction is a real illness, or one which is simply a state of mind. I often think, just stop or walk away, but at the same time I understand why people have a hard time just going cold turkey. I have these discussions with someone in my family and they keep telling me it's not that easy, but in the back of mind I always think just get on with it.

Plantpothead Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I stopped smoking when my first Daughter was born, no problem at all, I haven't touched one since, but the drinking was a lot harder, I still drink, but I haven't drank vodka for 6 years, and that was my downfall. So I suppose I have progressed as I don't drink spirits, just real ale....in moderation of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
