| schestowitz | Those numbers are only symbolic and they are no guarantee of happiness. Often they accompany jealousy from one's peers, which actually only leads to sadness and tension. As my mate Mike said the other day, people believe that by getting a bigger house they will make more friends; sadly for them, as they ultimately find out, it does not work that way. | Aug 01 21:32 |

| schestowitz | > "success club" begins at 1 million. | Aug 01 21:32 |
| schestowitz | Well, it's not a "success club" but a "greed club"; many in this club are also sociopaths who made their life's goal to use ruthlessness and exploitation to make up for love they never received from parents and respect they couldn't gain from school mates. Those who are complacent with who they are pursue simpler things and enjoy life, not playing the money game where wealth is pseudo-score. | Aug 01 21:32 |

| schestowitz | > a pentagon and known as home plate. | Aug 01 21:32 |
| schestowitz | Sport analogies are insulting to one's intelligence. Sometimes the "base" terminology is used to refer to one's love life, as if all one can judge a score by is sexual intercourse. This is why we end up in a promiscuous society where guys count # of girls they slept with as though it's some universal count of their appeal or worth. In reality, all it is should be some measure of "assholeness"; they're "players", not gentlemen. | Aug 01 21:32 |

| schestowitz | I don't think in these terms. I judge how HAPPY I am AND how happy those whom I love are. That's all. We live once, we must enjoy it and make it enjoyable for others. The billionaires often make it a misery for billions of people, who are the externality. | Aug 01 21:32 |

| schestowitz | I am happy, very happy. With my Other Half, I am the happiest I've ever been. I don't need to keep track of "score" or "base" or whatever. | Aug 01 21:32 |
