    Big deal, all that matters is that I can drive places, eat, do the things I enjoy, and whatever else. I don't need some big fucking house with plasma screens. All I need is a good laptop, a car, my music, a few cool gadgets, and whatever. I have all that and then some.

    The Digital World. It is an amazing place in which we primitive humans interact. Our flesh made this synthetic machine. You see, we are so smart, we know a lot of stuff. We were grown from cells that came from the universe, which the matter and physics I'm typing in it is amazing how the universe is working. Human life is very amazing. How I experience this sh*t its like wow.

    Nor do I, but I like having one. But, that's not really my point. My point is that working, and earning money, gives me the freedom to have things I'd like, to travel, to support causes that matter to me, and, most important, to create security for me and my family. What will you do when you are of retirement age ? I intend to keep working part time, for fun, travel a lot, have money to support my grandkids, and basically kick back and enjoy myself.

        I would have hoped you'd have a saving plan for your first house, at least. I expect to meet mostly smart people, on a programmers website.

                                Take $10k as fun money and do what you want... the remaining $40k you need to invest - and nowhere crap, speak to a financial advisor! - trust me, you'll thank me in ten year's time.

                                  Got through. There are, I believe some consortiums of colleges that allow you to submit a single application for all schools to consider. But again, I think we have something that works in britain, but which wouldn't scale up very well.

                                      don't feel the need to play the lottery to pay the bills.

                                      I've never played the lottery in my entire life, and I don't plan to either.

                                      The Digital World. It is an amazing place in which we primitive humans interact. Our flesh made this synthetic machine. You see, we are so smart, we know a lot of stuff. We were grown from cells that came from the universe, which the matter and physics I'm typing in it is amazing how the universe is working. Human life is very amazing. How I experience this sh*t its like wow.

                                        Okay, so I said real programmers don't play the lottery since we have a paycheck. So this is CQ's reaponse: I've never played the lottery in my entire life, and I don't plan to either. So HOW did you get that money? Did you sue your ex-boyfriend?

                                          Didn't you see the joke icon? At first I made it seem somewhat serious without the joke icon to see what kind of responses I would get.
