I guess everyone is too busy entertaining themselves to bother commenting let alone have kids.

I guess everyone is too busy entertaining themselves to bother commenting let alone have kids.
- throwawaysleep 3y agoPretty much. My life is tremendously simplified if I just pause it in high-earning young person mode. Money is abundant for travel and anything I want. - I don't need to figure out dating. Means I don't need to figure out everything from conflict resolution to clothing. - I don't need to struggle to buy a ton of housing. - I have a friend who will have kids I can just play rich uncle to. - I can retire decades early due to overemployment and spend an absurd amount of money every year doing whatever I want. Hundreds of thousands a year to just dump on whatever tickles my fancy. That is what kids existing must compete against.
