Like I said in my last post that you obviously failed to read thoroughly, most people have to work for somebody else before they can work for themselves.
If you have to work at Mickey D's while writing that future best selling novel, then so be it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with not wanting to work for somebody else for the rest of your life as long as you're doing something about it.
Come on, man...if I was leeching off someone, it would be pretty idiot-like to "look down" on that person.
But you made me think of something else to say when you mentioned this:
People who want to become independently wealthy by eventually working for themselves are the ones who contribute to the world the most. Think about it...
Somebody creating the cure for cancer or AIDS
Somebody writing a magnificent screenplay (Hollywood sucks right now)
And I've heard talk about a car that will possibly run off water (H2O) in the near future.
Lol...I respect my Pop...like, duh...but actually it's the other way around. Does he respect my wishes to start my own business? Right now, I'm a substitute teacher...can't get more honorable than that...well, maybe a full-fledge teacher, lol. The fact remains that I still want to work for myself (and be RICH BITCH!). I mean...this is America, right? What's wrong with that?

There are two types of people:
1. Those who work for themselves (their own greed)
2. Those who work for other people.
A teacher (by theory) works for the student.
A politician (by theory) works for the people.
A lawyer (by theory) works for the client for justice.
A journalist (by theory) protects the people by informing them of the truth
Police are paid by our taxes, they work for us (in theory).
Everybody is working for somebody.
Whether you call your boss "boss" or whether you consider your boss a "client" . . . it makes no difference. Nobody works for their self except greedy capitalist pig motherfuckers.
Whether you work for yourself or work in a factory your entire life, everything you gain will be lost the moment you die. His fate and your fate are the same. You will both be feeding the worms soon. If he's happy, then shut the fuck up and let him be. If you're not, then do what you gotta do to find happiness and peace. I'll tell you right now though, you aint gonna find it in money.
