Lady Psycho Sexy WylrPnufh I mean, I understand: Friends>Stuff. I agree, but Stuff = Good, too.
=3 Not that I'm complaining. wink
I think it's a pretty good outlook, and a really nice thing to do. The fact of the matter is if I ever end up in any trouble I can't go and ask my possessions for advice, nor can I go out for a beer with them, nor can I ask them "hey, can I come crash at your place for a while?"
I mean I can't really do much of that stuff with you guys either cause of the distance but you know. It'll never really do anything for me.

Lady Psycho Sexy bleu_flame That's what happened to me after I got my Horns of the Demon. xD I had 2 mill left over, so I started anonymously gifting items to a few friends and making them art. It must happen to a lot of people after they get the items that they want. sweatdrop Lots of people don't. I know people who start whining if their 2-billion-gold hoards start to deflate, even though the only item on the site worth that much doesn't even interest them. It's like, wtf? Why do you value something that can't even get you what you want? I suppose it could be seen as addictive like achievements. When I have less than 200k, I feel the urge to sell something to get over 500k, even though I'm not planning on buying anything.

Lady Psycho Sexy Mandy Amour Lady Psycho Sexy Mandy Amour Lady Psycho Sexy Mandy Amour If thats sarcasm im bad with it LPS xD, but if you mean it im glad love. I wish I was around more before so i knew more what was going on here.. No, I mean it. You actually get it. I can't believe how silly I was for thinking hoarding s**t for myself would make me happier than seeing my friends happy.  Oh I know the feeling! Once I got my afk done and over with, I just sat there and was like ..now what..? Its so much better to see the excitement in other people when they get an item they would never have had the chance to get without some help. I may not be an 03er and rich but i give what i can and to see them happy, makes coming on here worth it ^-^ That was exactly what happened to me. I got my Scarf and my brain was going 'Now you need Minis to match it'. And I was just like "... neutral When am I going to be happy?" I think finding the happiness comes in being content with your friends. Not the items but the people you come across. I know im 21 and if i take anything away from this site its not the items, but the friendlships along the way. Exactly. I didn't realize that until like, yesterday. I feel kinda bad about it, actually, for not figuring out something so simple earlier. mhmm i agree hun thats why im always buying for others instead of buying for myself. i feel way better giving something so small to someone else then buying it for myself. Mandy saya- its not that it took you this long to figure it out Lps its the fact that you were ment to hoard the items becuse look at all the people you can help now fully in their quest compared to maybe just being able to help here and there. it doesn't matter that it took you thins long its the fact that you actually got there ^.^

The sad part is that there are people in the real world who have billions and billions and it causes them nothing but stress when there are other people on the other side of the globe who could live a happy, fulfilled life on a dollar a day. I always thought I felt sorry for the poor ones, but now I'm not so sure.

What good is being rich when you know you aren't going to live forever to use it all, and there are people dying because of poverty? Like the countries in Africa, what if a billionaire would donate over half of his riches to help create a better living atmosphere for them? @Mandy: It is human nature, but human nature sounds more like an excuse to say that everyone does it, but you're doing something better than them.

I do have a knack for raising something in abundance that everyone I care about wants much faster than they can, and I actually enjoy doing it. Maybe I'll hold on to a little gold and a couple hoards and keep vending so I can do this again.

A brand new car costs more money than it does to drill a ******** well so a village doesn't go thirsty. Can you believe that?

A brand new car costs more money than it does to drill a ******** well so a village doesn't go thirsty. Can you believe that? You could probably drill well over ten wells with the amount a car costs. And after that, you can supply them with bikes for transportation. Companies could create factories for them and it could help them start an economy. Instead we have China do all that. It's Montiqueue. :3

It's Montiqueue. :3 Or we could forget about the concept of an economy and teach them to be collectively prosperous without hoarding things for themselves individually. I mean, there are people in our country who live on less than a dollar a day and the economy isn't doing them any good. Not saying it'll happen, just saying it'd probably be better for them that way.
Also thanks. P: All the trades should be done and I'll have an updated screenshot soon.
