"Money, cars and material things won't suddenly make you happy."
But what about the freedom to work on things that don't make money? This is the true purpose of seeking out "fuck you" money
- fnid2 17y agoYou don't need fuck you money to do that. I do that and I don't have fu money. I volunteer lots of time and create websites that don't make money or aren't intended to make money. If you are really productive, live a frugal life, and create a little residual income you can work on whatever you want.
- semanticist 17y agoIf you're happy with a frugal life, then your 'little residual income' effectively IS fuck you money. Fuck you money doesn't have to be hundreds of millions of dollars, unless you want to support a wealthy/extravagant lifestyle. Then again, maybe you want an extravagant lifestyle and your own submarine. That's not any better or worse in itself than just wanting a frugal life.
