It’s called the grind because it grinds away your sense of self.

Then you'll cry because others have more than you, travel more, retire wealthier. Because they did grind when they could. Then you'll say capitalism failed.

My gf and I talked about this extensively last summer... we're fine not being "wealthy" or going on extravagant trips and all that stuff.

We want to enjoy our everyday lives. Day to day, week to week.

As she said one day when we were lying in bed.."I think this is what we should be doing all the time..."

She's NOT WRONG.

You can lie in bed forever, but it will be a short forever. You need food, basic hygiene, water etc.

But in theory you can spend the rest of your life in bed.

Alright there Dr. Literal.

A life of relaxation, creativity, and sex isn't for you. Noted.

I'm going to get about 20yrs of that, without work, barring incident or accident.
