Hey,all those things are true,I mean:all those thing are like this for me. I don�t have any money,but I have all those bad sideeffects. I am a big target and noone helps me for free.Noone helps me at all,you know,I always have to make all their wishes come true and stuff-and I also got that thign going where everyone wants to say they helped me so much and have been giving me advice when all they did is make me more insecure and make my sight unclear,you know,by their false advice. I�ve also always had friends telling me I�m a cheapskate and telling me on how one should donate money,when they had twice as much as me andd idn�t donat,when I did. You know,all I could say was:GRRR! You really described the way I have to live all my life-only without having any money. I also live like a hermit. Haha,weird huh. But that�s what I like,being a hermit,so that�s ok.

There is truth in all of that, but thankfully I live in Canada. Our society differs greatly, and we wouldn't have to watch our backs as much up here. The biggest threat is family. Those greedy assholes try to nail you any way they can. Society pretty much leaves you to it, we apparently are too "polite" for that shit. A bodyguard that looks mean is all you need here. Then again, with that cash I would walk into fast food places, and pay for everyones meals. But, I'm not a greedy fuck. I'd rather enjoy it with people.

I think the point of charity is to make you feel good..whether you have money or time or whatever to give to someone else...it's the thought of helping someone, because you want to...justbecause you have millions you should have to give it all to someone you don't care about..and just because you don't have millions doesn't mean you shouldn't try to improve someone's life you do care about. I would love to have access to unlimited funds to be able to give the poeple I love things that they dream about, but could never have. And for some poeple that may even just mean that I use the moeny to NOT work, and spend my time with them. But I think the point is, the people who you would really give things to wouldn't have to come knocking on your door to ask you for it, you would already know, because they would have been a part of your life before you had it all. And as for the poeple who do knock on you door, and judge you for turning them away, you can't really give them a second thought. They didn't know you before, how can they judge you after?
