I find it really funny when people with plenty of money say "Money is not the most important thing in the world"

Do you think you can be completely happy even without money, or you think money is necessary to be totally happy in life? Why?

Okay... so this is gonna be a long answer.

I was able to explore a lot in my life because I was privileged enough to have all my salary to myself, I didn't have parents to provide for, or siblings to send to school. I started working at sixteen, that's why I value money so much, knowing how hard it is to earn. I was able to send myself to college and provide myself with a decent home. Sure those were years of sleepless nights, but it also taught me independence, and though it is liberating at times there are also days that solitude brings forth loneliness.

I tried to fill that loneliness with everything I can think of. I was young, with a lot of time, and earning much more than I can spend. I partied. Binge drinking, and doing vices for days with people whose names I can barely recall. I was spending thousands every night, but there was no one to turn to when I had my first alcohol overdose. I was nineteen, too young to be hooked on vices. But what can I do when it was the only thing that makes me forget how lonely I am? I got into a revolving door of romantic partners, just so I can feel like I belonged with someone. Relationships that were good, but mostly I regret.

I tried discovering new hobbies. I tried to go back to arts, invested in painting. Then literature, writing poems, and buying every book I find interesting. I went to the movies almost everyday, watching everything that's showing in the local theaters, subscribed to every streaming platform there is. I invested in athletic wear, ran 21k marathons, bought a bike and ride 200k, bought outdoor gears and camped on deserted sites, hiked 2k+ masl mountains.

Those moments gave me peace but whenever I go home, I'm reminded of how alone I really am.

Last year I thought I found the person who will fill that loneliness. I changed my lifestyle to fit their definition of a perfect relationship. And when it ended I realized how much I've given up. My business venture lost me 70% of my capital, forcing me to declare bankruptcy, I had no other source of income. Moving out from the apartment that my ex partner and I shared left me homeless. And sacrificing my friends for love left me alone.

That's when I went home. And each day ever since, I am learning to work on my happiness. I no longer need to spend thousands on booze, in fact I am working on overcoming my alcohol dependency. I didn't need to go to the movies ever so often, there's a flat screen TV with my entire family sitting on the couch on popcorn nights. I play with my 6 year old brother, cuddle with another who's 1 year old. My 23 year old brother cooks me the best meals, and my sister does my nails when she's not being a moody teenager. My dad and I barely talks but he has provided me with everything I needed to pick up myself again. He never knew why I went home, he never asked.

It took some time but I was able to get my life back on track. I was able to rebuild the finances I lost, (and not to brag but I got more than what I lost that I was actually able to be unemployed for 3 months now and still have money), found myself a new apartment, reconnected with friends. And though I can't say that I am genuinely happy with the way my life is right now, I can say that I am getting there. I have learned to be okay with being alone.

Some of my happiest moments were because I can afford it but some of my unhappiest were because I have more money than actual relationships. So I guess it's not really about the amount that you have or willing to spend, it's about how and with who you spend it with.

All that bullshit about how money can't solve all your problems. Bitch you LIE! Money can solve all my problems. You literally can buy happiness. Like what you need? Beauty? Health? Education? Love?? Peace of mind? Them material goods??? You got it. You can may off your student loans. You can live a better quality of life. You can travel the world. Money literally can clear your pores and cure your depression. All this bs about how wealthy people are also unhappy. Girl are you serious??? I want to get to where that is an actual problem. I want to be where I've to worry about if the people who love me really love me or my money. I want to be where I've to worry about which of my loved ones are gonna kill me for the inheritance. I want to be where that is an actual problem and then we'll talk about how money can't buy you happiness.

Hi, Kay! I saw the post you rebblogged about writers and how they made a living while writing for years and... It really got me thinking. How weird it is that some people just can't even see their privilege. So, I'm from Argentina. We got some public colleges here (people from other countries come to study here because of that). They are really GOOD, but the only public place that offered the Psychology career (I don't even know how to talk) was all psychoanalysis oriented. And I wanted an updated education. Anyway, so... My parents are paying a private college for me (you can do that in my country without dying paying for it, but it is a privilege). And people DON'T understand when I say that I don't have money. I do work, but that's barely enough for transport, food (I live far away so I'm always on the bus for hours a day) and necessities. So it's basically "hey I can't go out this weekend cause I don't have any money". I do know and I am very aware of my privilege cause I've been poor before. And because I know that I couldn't do everything I do without my parent's help. So... All this to say, I really appreciate when you put this types of themes in your stories too. I didn't want to talk about Gallavich but those are the stories I know you from. And I really appreciate that you explain Ian and Mickey's background all the time. People who had been poor manage money in a special way when they do have it. Financial stability Is a huge privilege and it's not taken for granted. And I adore that you take that into consideration. I just keep finding things I love about your art, thank you. And sorry for he whole long text

💗💗💗

5 incredible reasons why managing your money saves your marriage

5 incredible reasons why managing your money saves your marriage

Do you know managing your money saves your marriage from falling like nine pins? Money plays a crucial role in your married life. Though love for your life partner is important for your relationship, money decides whether your love will remain stable. It is because when there is no money, love becomes your secondary thought, as you struggle to face the full harshness of this money-minded…

looking at (vetted) gofundmes for people trying to escape palestine and i don't know how many of you actually click on the gofundme links you reblog but i would like to point out, for what it's worth, just how amazing it is that so many have raised so much money. it may overall feel like a drop in the ocean but the fact that several gofundmes have raised tens of thousands of dollars is amazing. it is so expensive to leave gaza right now, and people still need money after they escape. but regardless of what propaganda the US, UK, canada, and other western nations are trying to pump out, people across the world are doing what they can to help these people survive. many of them are still very far from their goals (like this one and this one and this one) and some of them are very close to high goals (like this one), and some of them have reached almost double their original goal.

and that's not even addressing direct aid or organizations that take continuous donations for distribution of food, menstrual products, etc. the PCRF has raised $16,000,000 of their target goal of $20,000,000 to fund current aid and long-term relief efforts in gaza. ANERA's febuary 13th update discusses the material ways they helped palestinians today:

(ANERA donate link)

my point is, it often feels like the world is turning a blind eye to palestine. but i would like to point out that there is an important difference between "the world" and "western political leaders and media narratives". a breathtaking amount of real people, the people who make up the world, are trying to help. in the face of israel attempting to commit genocide, the world is saying No. These people deserve to live. and literally sending millions of dollars internationally, through the internet connection that israel has desperately been trying to destroy.

it may not feel like it matters in the grand scheme of things. but to the people who get fresh clothes, or a hot meal, or blankets, or the kids who get new toys, or to the people who are able to bring their families to safety, it matters to them. go make someone's day better. i've linked so many options with ways to do that.

#free palestine #cricket chirps #palestine #gaza #if you feel overwhelmed and don't know where to begin #i recommend deciding on a total amount of money to donate (e.g. $20 $100 etc) #and deciding you will either donate it all in one place or split it between a few places #do what you can!!! it will always be helpful no matter how little #1k #5k #10k #20k
