So, last night this guy was there at the bar. He asked me what my first name was and I said Andrew.

- Oh Andrew, your name day is Nov30 and its going to be a Tuesday. The next time nov30is going to be Tuesday is 2027(havent checked either)

So, I said wow, and moved on. He was mentally disabled, but like the Vegas type. And kind. And kind of poor looking at his perfectly cleaned, ironed $5 shirt and grey cotton pants.

And I suddenly felt ashamed for my shallowness. Me and my wife want to buy this car and that car, and that mf actually came with train man. And I fucking noticed that its a five buck shirt..

So yea, there is this pure human being and I want to buy a Volvo and a Challenger..

Even though happiness is just a fucking apple juice (thats what he drank)

Man I fucking hate myself..
 
Don't have that problem here. The best things in life are FREE. Try the best everyday and if you can help others out It's good karma for sure.
 
So you have to take action. Get out there, meet people who need help, and
filter through violent people.

Helping people even when you don't get accolades for it is worthwhile.

@Chocolope - Nice, I have been looking for an architect. PM me.
 
Not evactly the "you are not a shitty person" type of comments buz thanks guys
 
Shining object syndrome is apparent. This one? Don't think so. Maybe 10 years ago. The shame of being poor was apparent. A 50 cent piece of chocolate was too pricey. So I started making money.
Now I give those 50 cents everyday to people in need.
 
I know how you feel. I'm coming from a third world country and drive a Mercedes-Benz. Sometimes I'm not comfortable when driving the car.
 
Forget about it. Being ashamed of your wealth is just another trick of the rich to keep the poor without it!

Yeah, credit where credit is due :p


That said, not sure why you would notice someone's shirt and pants and know how much they cost. So it's cotton? Really? How do you know it's cotton? Did you check the label?

Maybe I'm just a little stupid, so I don't know which fabric is which, but looking at someone's clothes and knowing what they're made of and how much they cost just isn't a skill I've been blessed with.

I don't really look at other people for anything. Maybe I'm a selfish asshole who only thinks about himself. So what someone wears, I don't even see you bro. What I wear, that's what matters. Not to you or for you, but to me and for me, see :D

$4k is too much in your country?
 
I dont feel bad per se

I wish the world was fair

But i'm only living in reality

If I have my basics covered without stress i'm happy
If I have excess and able to travel and do what i wish, I'm happy
If I'm poor... im stressed
