Implying working less than 75-hour weeks makes you poor.

Some people thrive on their work so really depends. I have worked 100 hour weeks for ten years to barely make ends meet somehow and I have made the conscious choice to work insane hours for the extra money are two different things.

This lol

People need to stop making a whole song and dance about capitalism this or socialism that.. especially when you consider some people even decide to purposely work in the dirt and mud lol

I feel proud of how hard I worked, and Ill feel even more proud the day I have kids and they say look at how hard my dad worked all his life, he really busted his ass so I could have a great life

You only tend to have that perspective when youre just working for you and not towards any kind of future tbh

On the subject of "brawinwashing", I'm kind of leaning towards the possibility that there's some actual corporate brainwashing/manipulation when I keep hearing people say that being busy makes time go by faster. I've usually found it makes time feel like it's going by slower, and when I'm not doing anything, it feels faster.

So basically, you're happy to be working that much just... as a flex?

Pretty much, I could care less about these theories of brainwashing or whatever - I could care less about petty things like that

I just work, make money, have a goal to buy a home - I could care less if it all looks like brainwashing to someone else who still overcomplicates easy things. The girl can easily sell pictures online and shes still complaining? You think Im really gonna take their word on brainwashing? Lol

Okay, but what about... working for something other than to hold it over peoples' heads and be like, "Look how much I worked!"?

Thats almost false premise anyways - people like that girl just feel some type of way someone has outworked her and feels someone shoved it in her face

Thats just err.. the real reality of her not working as much >_>

The solution: work as much as that person <_< lol

If you are working for yourself, or doing something creative that you enjoy that's one thing. If you are doing physical work though, your body breaks down even doing it for 40 hours a week.
My dad did that shit. Worked hard physical labor for 70-80 hours a week my whole life. He was a teamster so he had good benefits and damn good overtime pay rules. First it was so me and my brother could have whatever we needed as kids, then it was so he and my mom could have a good retirement. He got Esophageal cancer at 62 and was dead by 64, never got to enjoy his retirement.

If you have kids, theyll say I dont love my dad. He was never around because he devoted his life to work and neglected his own kids. Fuck him.

That's true, but getting in a few years of physical work can condition you in a way most sports and the gym can't. It's worth it for a while.
