      “MoNeY cAn’T bUy HaPpInEsS”

      It sure as fuck can buy some sense of safety to focus on “wants”, like children. The wealthy want the labor force to be born, yet are doing everything they can to suck them dry of every financial well-being they try to get. Then they got the gall to write these wedge pieces blaming a generation for not doing some fucking survival gymnastics to fulfill their gloom and doom future!

      I mean, same for me. I keep joking that I’m too selfish to have kids, but the reality is I’m not so rich I can afford to have enough help to still live my lifestyle.

      Pretty much. I have kids and we only made that choice when our finances were in reasonable shape. We’d have never made the choice to have them, if we didn’t think we could afford them. Because ya, kids are expensive.

      What causes your mother to spread her legs? What type of shot is she best-known for filming?

      Damn, you’re right, it’s like magic.

        That isn’t very nice to say. I guess if your mother would have had the foresight to abort you none of us would have to deal with the tediousness of interacting with you.
