Well, if we're talking need, then I humbly suggest that a great deal of things you feel that you need money for are, in actuality, no such thing. More often than not it is our desire for money and the alternative money offers us, not so much an issue of need. You don't -need- money for food, you desire money for a specific type or amount of food. You do not -need- money for shelter, you desire money for a certain location or quality. If you insist upon dining somewhere other than the bank of a river or a dumpster, and do not feel the urge to live under a tarp, than you are, in fact, acting upon your wishes and desires as you tirelessly work in your shit job for the meager wages which afford you some semblance of luxury (comparative to the alternative).
