Materialistic

Having lots of stuff

I don’t live under a rock and I am aware of people of wealth that I see on TV. I suppose I am amazed at how one person can amass so much wealth in the same time I have been alive. There are people whom I respect that have amassed lots of wealth and stuff and then there are people I don’t respect that have lots of stuff. Ill start right out and start with a person I do not respect and like. Elon Musk. I hate that guy. I feel he needs mental help or something. How can a moron like Elon Musk amass so much wealth in his lifetime??? Was he given money from his father? He owns so many companies too. I feel Elon cheated or cut corners in the system to gain all his wealth and companies. Elon is also probably using some of this wealth to do bad things to the Democracy of the United States of America. I don’t want to dig too deep on Elon, but how the hell does that guy get so much money?? He does not seem intelligent. Its a mystery to me.

Some people I do respect

There are some people that amassed wealth that I respect. Not to name drop, but I do like Bono from U2. I admire all group members of U2. (I remember the bus in Mexico), sorry brain fart. Anyway. Bono and the rest of the group came from nothing and built a body of music that is good and they made something that is worth billions. I think they are all easily billionaires if I am not mistaken. So I respect Bono. He also probably does charity work. I think lots of wealthy people that made it big and came from nothing give  back to charities. That is commendable. I also admire and like Jay Leno. I love his car collection. If I were to amass any millions of dollars, depending how much I may have, I would like a car collection too. It’s a silly dream of mine. Maybe not as big as Jay’s car collection. I’d like to model my lifestyle after Leno’s. I would move somewhere warm, most likely in the American Southwest. I would have a modest house, a house that I could clean by myself.. I’d rent out a section of a warehouse near my home and have my car collection. Just a silly dream of mine. I also admire Arnold Schwarzenegger. I like Arnold because he sounds like my father. My parents are German, and Arnold is Austrian. Same language, German.

Managing stuff  

One thing about having lots of stuff is, how the fuck do you manage all of it?? That’s one thing I would be terrible at. I can barely manage keeping my bed room and computer room clean. I can’t understand how these wealthy people that have lots of wealth and material items, how do they manage all their stuff? They must have people that help them do that right? How do you pick the people that you can trust to manage your stuff? If I say would get $27 million dollars just hypothetically, I can’t even imagine how I could manage that. Currently I am lucky if I have $200 bucks in my bank account at one time. I am sitting here in my parents basement, buying trinkets off of Amazon every month. Sadly I do see these people on TV and hear about what they have and how much they have. I do compare my life to their lives. I know I should not. Even though I just turned diabetic and have a fatty liver, I am happy with simple things. I have all my body parts, I have near perfect eyesight and I can walk. I am mobile. So I do reflect on the simple things that I do have.

Being materialistic

One thing in life that is not good is being very materialistic. When you will do bad things or unethical things or hurt people to get wealth, that is no good. I know this and my parents instilled that value into me as  a child. Never rob, or cheat, or murder for wealth. Sadly I am a little materialistic. I would love a Porsche 911, my dream car. I would not rob or cheat anyone for that car though. Yes, there are more important things than money and stuff. A mother and fathers love, a lovers love. Respect, ethics, honesty. I would like to think that my German mother and father instilled these codes into me during my childhood.  I still would love a Porsche 911. I love cars. I love to drive. Maybe one day, I will have my dream’s fulfilled. Until then I am fighting to get my Social Security. Also some people don’t come from loving families. So I do have a families love.
