do what you must but if you don't have professional mentors in your life who have graduated to 10hr a week guru, then yield mindshare and several minutes" meditation to this post. more than 40 hrs is not characteristic of successful bossing and the damage it does to your spiritual faculties will sink u in the long run. more than 60hrs is king-of-the-anthill bosswork. the real transcendent rewards cum to the righteous & a fried spirit doesnt cultivate righteousness. a pyramid w/ disharmony trickling down from the top block is some babylonian sh!t. do what u gotta do, but if u find ur construct still consumes 60hrs per week of youth a year or two from now call up the friends with capital u have made and conjure urself a fresh machine that dont require a madsuffering lord nit picking ton of details and expending cummies to fuck established hierarchy of cucks to sleep. if u need any guidance wrt development i can peck out another post w/ my nose but i think youl'l be ok there.

This is the kind of bullshit poor people say. Like when fat people say “true beauty is on the inside”

[Argh]

wtf are my spiritual faculties

trump works a lot

trump works a lot

He also believes that exercise is bad for you, that you are only wearing out your body faster and it's more beneficial to reserve your life force by eating Burger King and playing lots of golf. When playing golf he limits the amount of walking he does and always uses a cart to again, preserve his life force. Stable genius is very stable!

[skarlorn]

sooo you're saying because of his health theories that it's also dumb to work hard. Got it!

I was just commenting on some of his life theories that I found interesting.

When you randomly mentioned Trump this was the first thing I thought of. I honestly don't know how hard Trump works or doesn't work. (Does he work hard?)

You are reading too much into what I wrote, or what I didn't write. :D

Stable genius bragged about a 30 point test. He would be an excellent poster here.

Lulz you piece of sh!t - Nice sig fuk boi

Also what you need to realize is no one in this thread will ever truly be wealthy unless you own your own company and are good at sales. If you work for someone else you will always be a pleb. If you are not in some form of higher level sales you will always be a pleb. If you are making 100k-200k then that means you are making your boss(s) millions per year and if you were independent you would be able to retire within a couple of years.

This is a fair point and I don't disagree with anything you've said. However, as skarlorn alluded to earlier in the thread, the time investment for being your own boss (and salesman, depending on the field) is very significant. I can't claim to make 100k a year yet, but I do have a cushy 7:00 - 3:30 schedule in a comfortable job. I suppose you have to figure out how important money is to you and spend the appropriate time chasing after said dollar bills y'all. Personally, I'm happy making what I make. I own my own truck and house and have enough disposable income to be reasonably happy financially.

Life is like EQ in that there's always a drive to get to that next level or that next attainable shiny. Owning your own business is akin to raiding full time, whereas I am a still a filthy casual, I guess.

Skarlorn making some side cash off a click bait scheme is not being a business owner.

u're woefully ignorant of compensation schema outside of "muh boss". you're trapped behind glass in the n@gg@rverse looking thru at iPhone Xs.

I am in on the biggest compensation scam currently on the market, placing mid level IT and FDA regulatory compliance contractors in high level positions where my company has $50-$100 an hour mark ups! I skim 8% off the cream and drive home in my monster truck every night to a warm meal and a loving family (sorry if I am triggering you)

[SiouxNation]

All the people claiming wealth sound like new money to me.

[Lhancelot]

Personal happiness trumps all and I find it humorous when other people try to explain what other people should do and need for happiness.

More money doesn't always = more happiness. For some a median range of wealth is enough to feel safe, content, and happy.

Not everyone gauges success in life on how high they climb up corporate ladders. Some find fulfillment in doing many other types of ventures.

corporate-sharecropping should not be anyones lifequest

it's easy to think like that when you experienced the BUBO (sp?) years but you'd be shocked that sharecropping is an ideal lifestyle for many whomst submit to the hegemony

I was just in your face tonight, but found it a bit slow and boring. I think it's because groups are geared so well. It just seems like too much sitting and waiting for mobs to spawn. :(

That reminds me I need to do HHK again. It's been years since I XP'd there. Not many mobs though, I assume you talking about goblins in the basement?

That's true about SK it tends to favor soloists.
