There are only three certain things in life: death, taxes, and...

The fact that people who tell you who bad is money are always the ones who steal that money.

Of course, we all know that earning money is not the dream you would want to have. However, earning money is definitely one of the things that people should care about. All the hipsters in the world can hate money all they want, but it is still the only thing which can bring you freedom in this God's forsaken world.

Is it fair? Not at all. Sadly, we cannot choose the rules we play by, so it is only wise to adapt to the rules and make the best out of it.

And from my vast experience dealing with people who claim that money is evil, I only came to one conclusion:

Those people are greedy mofos, who will try to steal your money and make you feel ashamed.

That is the big irony of life, I guess. I once saw how a girl, who spent days telling me how money is nothing to her, tried to steal some money from a bartender. I also saw how a man, who spent years analyzing Ayurveda and teaching others about "spirituality," stole silver spoons and razors from my house. And those examples are endless.

Judge people by their acts. Judge people by their ability to survive independently.

Spirituality is the best tool for living from other people's expense. You just have to say, "I don't care about money. All I care about is my inner me. The material world sucks," and then, you can use other people's wallets to buy yourself some goodies. You can also sleep in other people's house for years without paying and eat their food without even asking if they want to. And whenever someone tries to compromise you for being a freaking leech, you reply:

I see you are not ready to become spiritual yet. Poor guy... Keep living in your material world.

It's better if you say those words in front of other spiritual people so that the person you steal from, would feel ashamed and guilty for being a capitalistic jerk. I still don't understand how this tactic works... but it works like a charm.

I guess it is humiliating to be called materialist these days. Somehow it makes you stupid and dead inside. And you know what?

I am a freaking materialist. I want money. I want goods... a lot of them. And I want more money.

That does not make me any less smart or spiritual (I hate this word, to be honest. I also have no idea what it means). In contrary, whenever I have a lot of wealth, I can focus on other things like getting to know myself and the universe. Whenever I have no money, all I can think about is how to get some to survive.

Money brings freedom. Freedom brings calmness. Calmness brings wisdom.

So yeah, 99 percent of people who tell you that money is shyt are sneaky, lazy bastards, who desperately want money, but don't know how to get it.
