Re: I am 40 years old and don't have shit
No house
No mortgage
Shitty vehicle
No money
No investments
No pension

I make under $40k, and can fit everything I own(of value) in the back of a pick-up.

I don't fit in, other people talk about House prices and what they have. I ain't got shit.
 Quoting: QuinEtiam

There are more people who do not have than them who do.

Not everyone has the American dream all wrapped up.

Many more than you think are in the very same boat.

I'd rather have nothing and be happy about it than to have everything and to worry to death about keeping it.

It's all shit anyway, so be happy!

The continual growth model has failed, they just don't know it yet.

At some point enough middle-class will turn into working-poor and things will slide. Literally every week the price of something goes up, gas, electrical, food etc.

No kidding.

I can't believe the price I pay for just a week's worth of groceries. It's ridiculous!

And OMG, the price of coffee is outrageous. I mean, c'mon, it's one of life few, simple pleasures....and the cans are getting smaller and the prices are going on.

It's getting harder and harder just to meet the most basic human needs.

An asteroid needs to hit us NOW and so we can get off this ride.

Re: I am 40 years old and don't have shit
I just turned 50. 4 BR house on 4 acres with big shop building, 2006 GMC, 2010 Jeep, 99 F250, tractor, 4 wheeler, several 30's-50's cars, all paid for and I don't work. Best job I had in my life made 30k a year and worked there for 10 years. I bought and fixed up several houses moving up and making money each time to get to this spot in my life. Also bought, restored and sold many old cars to make money.

Why judge yourself by the worlds views? of material wealth?

It will not matter in about 5 years. YOu will have nothing to lose when the financial markets go down for good.

You will NOT feel the pain of the loss.

Re: I am 40 years old and don't have shit
I have five kids and a wife. where i live i made up to $18/hr as a painter for 14 years. Company went down the toilet. I have a house and 3 vehicles and alot of shit accumulated over the years. Im about to loose evrything i worked for. I make 8.50 an hour now. Your not alone at all. But i can see the pain in my family and feel powerless. Damn i can barely keep us warm and fed.On the upside i found a cabin on 1 acre for 9,000. 2 bedroom 1 bath.I may have to do it. I wish i was free like you OP sometimes.
 Quoting: farmer general 927602


Buy it, if necessary by not paying mortgage on other place. The family will adapt to the new simpler but affordable conditions. It's not such a big deal one way or the other, and it is affordable and will get you out of debt after the current house is sold or foreclosed.

Buy it before your credit rating goes bad. It will be harder later to get it done.

Honestly, if I had good credit I would rack it. Try to get a decent vehicle and some gear stashed away. A pick-up and camper or motor-home. Rack the credit and walk way.

Don't do that dood. That's how banks lose money and people get refused loans. If people pay their debts then the banks won't have to sack employees or go broke. Just think of all the bank's investors that buy shares so they can retire rich enough to not have to go on the pension.

The fewer pensioners the better off the nation will be. Besides if you're poor you need those people to make money, they're the ones that will donate stuff to the salvos/food banks that give people food. If you can't be rich then someone else being rich isn't the worst thing in the world.

Fuck the banks and rich and the food bank.

Food banks in Canada are for Indo/Pak Cab drivers who make 80k and pay no taxes. They send their wives and children to pilfer the food banks.

They would find you, I wouldn't count on hiding, but what could they do to you?

That depends on the laws. Can they take your house to pay a debt? Your car? I don't know the laws where you are, but you should know them or find them out.

I'm a Supervisor for a Security company, I take care of the Mobile side. In Alberta and soon rest of Canada seizure and arrest laws will be changed. They are planning to outsource it all. As of June 2011, security services could be sub-contracted out.

Right now we have huge vacancies in Commercial real-estate, some buildings over 50%, soon the big push will be securing empty houses and properties.

i notice you have like -140 karma so maybe if you change your attitude you could change your life.

if you always do, what you have always done, you will always get, what you have always got.

just saying....
Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living. ~

Life is about choices, you get to make them each and every day of your life. ~

Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse.~

Only in America... do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poloi' in Greek meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.~

“When a government is dependent for money upon the bankers, they and not the government leaders control the nation. This is because the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Financiers are without patriotism and without decency.”

If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain.

The banks are the ones the got bailed out with billions. They aren't losing any money just us who bought houses that were over appraised by the banks, then the banks gave us the loans that were over valued. Those of us that were able to make the payment got screwed by all our neighbors that couldn't make their payments. Now most neighborhoods dropped in value because of the foreclosed homes. Screw the banks they are actually making money off of the foreclosure crisis. I wish I would of been bailed out along with all the other home owners that got screwed.

I am sorry so many have lost so much. the system is based on materialism and all western governments are corrupt. You money went to interest, inflated living costs and excessive taxation. Nothing is going to change until the people say enough and change the entire system.


American capitalisn ruined the world in many ways. You are all spiritual beings ficus on developing your soul now.

put your trust in God and never mind material things... store your treasures up in heaven not here on earth like most do. those without God are those that dont have nothing..even those with wealth dont have nothing without god and is why they are always trying to satisfy their happiness by chasing after material things all through their life and never being content with what they have..that is proof of what im saying. If you want true happiness ...find God and seek him with all your heart..until then you wont be happy with or without money...most people cant grasp what im saying because they are ignorant to the truth of it all..they do not know but messengers like myself come and try and let them know where and how to gain true happiness..now its up to you to pursue that. If you dont..you will never be truly happy in life..some people think they know how it feels to be happy..but they have no idea.

NO DEBT
NO 'SECURITY'
NO WORRIES (with 2 kids, try that on)

But what you have gleaned, as have I, is freedom and liberty not granted by another human being, but liberty in its true form. The Liberty of one's self. As Leary said after 'tune in etc.'...find the others. And there ARE others. You may be a closet Cathar...
