Honestly money is just an example of what you could be doing instead of playing EQ full time and instead using that extra 8-14 hours a day on pursuing your real life goals which won't dissapear when some nerd pulls the plug on his electric ant farm.

I'm certainly not going to deny that I hate every moment of what it takes to make that money. If you can enjoy yourself and survive, more power to ya.

But society demands you make a living, and living on everquest will not make a living.

In ten years I can retire at a very young age and enjoy the rest of my life. Can these people who spend their time poopsocking and racing say the same? I'm going to guess no.

If I can inspire ONE person to change, it's all worth it

You are clearly trolling because you can't honestly think demeaning and insulting people inspires them.

People like you always crash and burn, some call it karma I think it's a matter of reaping what you sow.

Anyway, good luck in your real life quest to make more money so that you feel more fulfilled and superior to those who make less than you. That is rich, indeed.

Sometimes you need a hard kick in the ass to get moving. Clearly you're not one that sees that.

Enjoy those vulak pixels though.

Well you only show ignorance regarding me and who you think I am. I don't even have a character in a guild on p99, let alone do I raid anything.

I just couldn't control the urge to interact with you on these here forums because I thought maybe I could show you the errors of your ways by pointing out to you how materialistic you are and shallow in thinking you are.

Obviously you are one of those types that will never see the light no matter how much enlightenment you are exposed to. Only you can help you.

we live in a materialistic society, neither you nor I can change that.

And the simple fact of the matter is, you are what you make, you're either comfortable or you're not. And the people who play this game like it's a job, waking up at 3am to kill dragons, are probably uncomfortable.

If you do not succumb to that, good for you. If you do, stop now.

Simple fact is, you need a lot of money to retire these days, the sooner people realize that, the better off they'll be, and the more money they make in their youth, not spending their time on everquest, the further away from 75 they'll be when they retire and can actually enjoy life.

But go ahead and keep convincing yourself I'm wrong. It will help you sleep at night.

Could you inspire me with a step by step guide to making 30k disposable income? I decided the other day I have 22 months to live unless I make some big changes in my life so if I could get that guide quickly...

Well the truest thing in life is, it's not what you know, it's who you know. start tapping into everyone you've known that's in a decent position, and ask them if they have anything available for ya.

If that doesn't work, PM me with your education level and whatnot, and I'll see what I can do.
