Those are some very confusing words xD
btw is your wife over-looking your shoulder?

(If it's still possible to jump on that sweet bandwidth kick)
Very excited to be jumping on board here. Looks like a genuinely wonderful community and staff. I've got my box up and working on transferring some services to it to grow, running great so far! Thanks for the new year sales!
Thank you for your reply, I have purchased a web hosting in RN, if RN will sell cheap da panel hosting in the future I think I will also support.
Sorry if you found it confusing. English is not my first language so sometimes nuance does not come across correctly. My wife never looks over my shoulder, like I said she is perfect.
What is successful? The standard of being successful is defined by our own. I am just greedy.
That is true, each of us defines what it means to be successful. IMO being greedy does not lead to success, as I define it, it leads to loneliness and despair. You can make/have lots of money without being greedy. In my experience working to assist others in their goals will make you richer than being greedy. But in the end you should do you and make the decisions you feel are right because you are the one who will bare the consequences on your decisions. I'll do me and you do you. I am good with that and I hope you are too.
nice 🤜🤛
I admire your thoughts. I am always greedy and can never achieve my dreams, so I seldom happy. I hope I can change my mind but can’t.
You must be really happy. What a great life.
As always! 🎉
I'll spend New Year's Eve with family at my cousin's house. Hopefully there's good food! 🤣
What about you?
I understand that opportunities are not the same for people every where in this world and some people have a harder time realizing their dreams because of a perceived lack of opportunity. All I can say is that I come from a poor country where the minimum wage was just raised this month to $10.75 a day. So when I talk about these things I am not talking as somebody who comes from a rich country.
One of the keys IMO to being successful is creating value for others. Working as an employee even if you have value will not make you very much money. The first rule of capitalism is never pay an employee what they are worth to you. Knowing that, ones only real choice if you want to make any real money is to be in business for yourself. Then you have to create value to be in demand by your clients. I did this by being innovative and bringing products to market that could not be found anywhere else. You need to create so much value in these products that you have too much work and that will allow you to raise your prices. Afterward you need to keep innovating and think up things that nobody else has though of before to stay ahead of the competition that will inevitably try to copy what you are doing. You will need to dedicate yourself to this work for a couple of decades and this is one of the many reasons why I say my wife is perfect. She worked with me to accomplish these things and so we have never had any real conflict between us over the almost 40 years we have been together. If the wife does not share your dreams and help to accomplish them it does not work out so well.
I am an old man who feels he has been blessed with a wonderful life and I am very thankful that this has been allowed to me, but I also understand that it could have been different if I had made different choices. So the choice is yours on how you are going to feel about your life when looking at it today and when you look back at it when you are old. My hope for you is that you make good choices and have an equally happy life. /rant

You guys have dreams ?
Hi Back, I’m Batman
Happy holiday ...
😂😂
Well, first I said "I'll be back." Then I said "I'm back." So there was a progression there to being "back". So yeah I guess I should now be know as FrankZ aka "Back". Anyway...
Nice to meet you Batman, I'm Back. Did you miss me ?
Oddly Appropriate Words of Wisdom ...
Take responsibility of your own happiness, never put it in other people’s hands.

I miss grass and Skynet
Thank you for the effort to type so many things and share them with us. I would like to create value as an employee but can't find a job. I would like to build a start-up but don't have the money for the first step. I would like to look at my life from a different aspect, and I am careless now
Life is what it is and we take it as what it is. The destination is fixed no matter what choice we made.
Don't you have dreams?
Just nightmares
That reminds me...
Did you guys know that bananas are technically grass ?
Then don't sleep. Nightmares are terrible. If you don't sleep, you don't dream.
Only sleep when you are tired and can't stay awake anymore, you won't have any dreams, good or bad.
I an now very curious where you are from ?
Planet earth, to be specific, DPRK.
Reality is even worse
Speaking of nightmares, there's The Apprehension Engine commonly known as The Nightmare Machine -- a musical instrument to generate those spooky sound effects in horror movies.
Yay! I had grass fruit yesterday.
If that is true, then I know a place that has nothing, and you see nothing, think nothing. The place I wanted to go sometimes.
Interested?
Is there any machine that makes you dream? The basic theory here is that if you don’t dream, you can’t have nightmares.
DPRK really ? Why don't you tell us some stories. I am sure they would be very interesting to me.
