Why is the whole world run off money? Well, I guess one easy answer would be, money equals power. People will do the stupidest things for money, and don't get me wrong, some of those things looks like a lot of fun, but thats just it, its all FUN things to do, why should you get paid 50k to jump through five holes in a wall that is moving towards you? That sounds like something my friends and I would do for FUN. All these television shows that are coming out and that are out give away so much money, not sure how they are obtaining these large sums of money. Theres reality shows (they all suck) that give away 250k just for not getting eliminated and playing dirty.. yea that helps our youth to respect people and work hard and honest for your pay. Wait, no it doesn't, it shows them how to lie, cheat and steal for it.
I used to have quiet a bit of money, and I am not gonna lie to you.. I loved it. I was making quiet a bit at my old job and I honestly did not care how much things were, if I wanted it, I bought it. I had to get a job here because my money was slowly decreasing with the rising prices. My new job, I hardly make any money. I actually have to be stingy on things and I hate it.
I wonder if they hosted all the "fun" shows but the top prize was a big hug or like a dollar, people would spend the money to travel there and play. I bet no one would be on that show and it would be taken off air. Instead people can play through a really fun obsticle course that looks like it was designed for teenagers and try to win thousands of dollars. Why don't they just take that money and either donate it to worthy charities, pay off our national debt, or just do something helpful to a community.
Something else I need to vent about, gas prices. What do they think we are? Money tree harvesters? If they do, well then I am a bad farmer cuz all my trees died. Four dollars almost a gallon.. my car used to fill up with $25.00, now im doubling that plus some. With the amount of money I make, i need to work a full days shift just to fill up my tank once, not to mention how much I drive just to get to work. Clothes prices are going up too. Who honestly pays $75.00 for a pair of pants or a sweatshirt? Even things at the Dollar Tree store have gone past a dollar, they need to rename it, The Slightly Above One Dollar Tree.
I guess all in all, I can't complain on how good I have it compared to some people. If only we cut prices down, I could afford to donate more than I am able to now. I can see why it is hard to come out of debt and poverty. Even a million dollars wont get you far these days.
We could all just be communists...I mean the idea of it.

I know what you mean by these dumb gamshows, like I Love Money. Although I like to watch it because it's entertainment when i'm bored, it's just ridiculous that they get to have fun and win money because of it. I also understand the gas scenario, I use to pay like $25 in my car I use to own, but now i'm paying $75 to fill up my Explorer.
All very good point, love. Money seems to be the hardest thing in our lives right now...
i hate money :( I struggle with it
