Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.


Concerns?

Hey! This is the designated catch-all entry. This is not an invitation to spam to your heart's content. The same rules apply.

opposite wealthy!anon above, i grew up pretty poor, with a single mom stuck on welfare (that my mom wasted on things SHE wanted) and food stamps.

my goal is to become wealthy even if i end up doing something that makes me miserable. i want to be able to give my kids the freedom from having to worry constantly that all we have is powdered milk, past-due rent, and donated clothing too many sizes too big.

it's a secret because the one time i told someone, i got called a greedy asshole with no morals.

i grew up in a relatively middle-class family where we were comfortable in most respects. when i was older and learned about our true financial status and the absolutely awful debt we were in, i developed major financial anxiety and resolved to do whatever makes me money (that isn't engineering, because i am way too dumb to even touch that with a ten-foot-pole). i've come to accept it, and most jobs are tolerable if you have other things in your life to balance it out.

i don't hesitate to admit that i had it pretty easy growing up, but i still know your sentiments to a certain extent, anon.

you are definitely not a greedy asshole. unfortunately, this is the society we live in, and we can't all do what we want for a living. there's nothing wrong with wanting financial security.

I'm going to be reasonable poor my whole life because I am ~perusing my dreams~ and I still think that whole line is BS. You should do what makes you HAPPY and if being secure in an accounting job and having money to go to the Bahamas in the summer and spoil your kids rather than be a starving artist makes you happy...then fucking go for it, and more power to you! That's not being a greedy asshole, that pursuing the american dream and being grounded in reality.
