Money on my mind........

I've been preoccupied with money the last few days, trying to beat the market, pick the right stocks, etc.... But in the end I realize it all comes down to luck. There really is not much difference in throwing ten grand into a company or putting it all on black at a casino. So I'll try my best with this accumulation of wealth thing, but I won't let it consume me and miss the important things in life.

Evil Vehicle

My car is dying.
For the record, it is a peice of shit.
I am convinced that this car, despite being an inanimate object, will eventually end up in hell.

Although I am thankful for it's countless a to b jaunts it has fulfilled for me, if it does indeed end up in hell it will not be completely undeserved....

I am looking forward to getting a new car.

Humans are quite silly beings.

We are supposedely the most advanced species yet we are the only ones who let our possessions and pursuit thereof consume the majority of time in our lives.....

My car is still a peice of shit though.

And I'd still like a new one.
