One thing I like is being in control, the more and more, the better and better I feel about my life and my circumstances. So having more money means I am free from any restraints on my future
It doesnât matter how much money I have because I will always be mentally ill about spending it
im bored
hi hi hi hi
Oh I dont like spending money either, but I like having it, and investing it, and seeing the number get bigger and bigger
It just sounds like we have totally different factors which cause positive mental health outcomes for us. Which is cool
That will be me for 10 hours today
Yeah, I think you are right
as in âinability to spend it because you have a crippling fear of giving out something you own to someone elseâ
For me at least, its âwhat if I need it later for something more importantâ
this reminds me of the 10 dollars i decided you owed me 4 hours ago
Spending money just often doesnât register as something that is possible to me most of the time
You donât have to spend it. The thought that I could leave my job any moment without become penniless, if something happens is a good feeling on itself.
I donât conceive of it as something that has value I can exchange for other things. If I do spend money that registers as Incorrect. Iâm not supposed to do that with money
Exactly, its liberating, to a enormous degree
Having âfuck youâ money is very very powerful, and power is great
âI may work for you, but im the one in control, not youâ
Sorry, I am not giving it to you
and why is that!!
For someone like me who is much more reliant on my job for the mental health benefit than the money, being fired and quitting are both incomprehensible so the money is just kind of a side benefit
I donât hate my job to think it as a âfuck youâ money. Itâs more a security line in case the worst happens.
