Having a bunch of money helps one live in cities and culture but thats what im calling out. I want to save enough money to get the supplies I need to live off of the grid or however you want to phrase it. But I don't believe I need to use that money to get there, it just would allow me to get certain materials / tools faster. |

The American Dream has run out of gas. The car has stopped. It no longer supplies the world with its images, its dreams, its fantasies. No more. It's over. It supplies the world with its nightmares now: the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, Vietnam. |

I've always been attracted to cars, and driving is a completely measurable experience: if you qualify last on the grid, you're the slowest, and if you qualify first on the grid, you're the fastest. So no one can say you're slow if you're fast and no one can say you're fast if you're slow. |

Well, the responsibility for maintaining a reliable transmission grid is one that's shared by an awful lot of players who have a role in the grid: Companies that either generate and transmit energy or just play the role of being the transmission systems or monitoring them. |

We should never denigrate any other culture but rather help people to understand the relationship between their own culture and the dominant culture. When you understand another culture or language, it does not mean that you have to lose your own culture. |

We need your help. I need your help. We need money for research. It may not save my life. It may save my children's life. It may save someone you love. And it's very important. |

What that book does for me is give me the tools in the same way that I had the tools when I learned the regular scales or the alphabet. If you give me the tools, the syntax, and the grammar, it still doesn't tell me how to write Ulysses. |

Even if you're improvising, the fact that beforehand you know certain things will work helps you make those improvisations successful. It really helps to have a certain amount of knowledge about musical structure. |

I've realized that being happy is a choice. You never want to rub anybody the wrong way or not be fun to be around, but you have to be happy. When I get logical and I don't trust my instincts - Thats when I get in trouble. |

My own experience is use the tools that are out there. Use the digital world. But never lose sight of the need to reach out and talk to other people who don't share your view. Listen to them and see if you can find a way to compromise. |

After the Cold War ended, there was an agreement between the former Soviet Union and America to convert weapons-grade nuclear materials into reactor-grade materials. So disarmament and nuclear energy actually are strongly linked. |

its important we take the word 'need' out of our vocabulary when it comes to money. we dont need money in any form, and saying so even when we dont mean it, ingrains it into our mind. however, despite wanting the money that i get from my job - i cant help but feel like i have something better to be doing

I'm not sure. I do think its more likely that those born in money have an attitude that they're family is smarter and harder working than the less fortunate. But they certainly didn't make their fortune giving money away.
But those who don't have money probably don't share their money either. But I think they would better understand what being in the bottom of the 99% lives like.
It really comes down more to how one was raised. People who are raised well are just good people. You don't see shitty snobby kids from parents that teach lessons and enforce boundaries.

In 1908 Freud identified money with feces and mad a connection of money to anal eroticism. He
also wrote (1917) of the unconscious, symbolic connection of money, through transformation of the
instincts, with penises, babies and gifts. Ferenczi (1952) wrote about the ontogenesis of the interest in
money as a progression from interest in feces though increasingly sublimated interests in mud, sand,
prettily shaped and colored pebbles, more sophisticated collectibles and finally money. According to

Despite common wisdom to the effect that money can?t buy happiness it is certain that many people
believe that enough money could make them happier than they are. Many people squander huge amounts
of time and energy, thinking about and trying to acquire money because of this belief. Even when they
are reasonably well off, people often make increasing acquisition and control of money a higher priority
than either self actualization or cultivation of relationships - leading to many of the personal and

In this author?s experience, patients will rarely bring up money issues unless the therapist is willing
to focus attention on them him /or herself. There is only one kind of therapy where discussion of money
and how we relate to it, and to each other because of it, often comes up: marital therapy. It comes up
there because disagreements over money and stresses connected to it are the most common reasons for
marital discord. That, to a significant extent, is the result of the money taboo which results in lack of

The Taboo Against Dealing With Money Issues
Why is it that the literature regarding the psychological meaning of money is so scant? As sated
previously, there is a taboo regarding the subject of money in our society, to which psychotherapists are
not immune. We Americans may complain about taxes, discuss the prospects of Social Security and brag
about the great bargains we found or the killings we made in the stock market, but we seldom discuss
our incomes, our indebtedness or, more general...

Another psychological approach to understanding people?s involvement with money was offered in
a financial magazine. This article (Sullivan, 1994) presented a classification of money personalities based
on a survey of 2,000 people?s ?inner financial life.? It divided people into seven personality
classifications as follows: 1) Hunters, who are characterized by an aggressive attitude toward the making
spending and investing of money and who tend to have unsettled personal lives and a higher than average

The Consequences of the Money Taboo
The Money taboo is a serious psychological problem because, though we do not talk freely about
money, it is of major concern to almost everybody in America. This taboo keeps people from finding
money?s proper place in their lives. It keeps them from balancing their financial needs with other needs;
such as love, family, self expression, self esteem, meaningful work and physical or emotional health. If
people can recognize and overcome their irrational or ...

Most people who don't want to do the PhD realize that they can leave and make a lot of money early on. The people who really want to do research and stay usually value money less.
