Do we actually need Stock Markets at this point? Like do they provide any tangible benefits?

Lazy? How are you basing that? Off of what I do for paid work? I work to pay for what I need. I don’t need a lot. I would say not greedy is more apt than lazy.

Wealthy family? Are you insane. I grew up on a council estate, ate free dinners and watched my dad batter my mum on the daily.

My mum didn’t work until I was a teenager and is a teaching assistant. Single mum.

She got lucky with some inheritance and bought a house when they were cheap in the 90’s.

Why are you so obsessed with working full time if you don’t need to?

My time is spent in the community you asshole.

It’s fucking insightful that you think someone taking only what they need is worse than someone taking more than they need.

Am I immature. Yes I am.

Am I selfish. Sometimes but I do stuff for other with charity most days and I’m a litter picker for my neighbourhood.

Am I greedy. Fuck no.

Did I have a perfect life. No. Nobody does.

Was it better than some? Yes like half the world had a worse life than me. As they did for you too.

Don’t come at me telling me I’m privileged when every fucker in the western world has a better life than half of humanity.
