How about if I just try living on your money for just a year?  You'll still have all your money for all the other years.  I'll just do one year on your money, then I'll go back to slaving away at stupid jobs

Even if wages are lower and cost of living is lower, I am certain you can see your way clear to help me out.  It's just for one year.

If that's too difficult what about six months?

LOL. You wouldn't want to live on my money for a year. It's barely a living.

Yeah see that's the thing, I don't think anybody should have to slave away at a stupid job. I feel like we've just been conditioned to accept the life of a worker bee like it's not a problem. Like its natural to bathe in phosphorescent light for 8 hours a day, sitting on your butt, eating fast food, becoming greasy and unhealthy in order to further enrich those who already have a lot of money.

It's not easy to break free of the modern cycle. It's been embarrassing, costly and kind of sad that I'm going to leave all my friends and family behind. But where I live the cost of living is particularly expensive so it makes the decision all the easier. I still have to part with a lot of CDs and DVDs from a lifelong collection. Probably the hardest part.

Sure, but look .... I could take a year of your money and spend it in a week, living high, man!  It'd be like a choice.  Then I'd go  bak to the stupid job.  Think of how good you would feel knowing how much fun I had with your money. 

Anyway, like, what?  Your really going to leave all the CDs and DVDs?  Really?
