I dont really value my job or career. Id rather not work and waste my life playing video games, but I do value my work ethic and taking the work i do seriously because I feel that everyone should do their best to contribute to the society they are a part of and benefit from. There is no shame in being a hard working grocery packer and having positive interactions with people.

A better life as what? I don't like people, I don't want kids, I don't want to get married, buying a house means I have to maintain it, I don't care if my neighbors think I have a nice car, I'm too neurotic and cynical to ever feel secure in anything. I mean **** all of that better life ****.

Too much of a narcissist who's scared of oblivion.

A narcissist meaning you value something in yourself at least? You really gonna tell me there's no way you could ever ever possibly have a better life than you do?

I value my continued existence as opposed to being nothing which is pretty baseline and I can't be sure that isn't just biological imperative working against me. And sure I could rise to some better level of existence but where's the motivation? Get an apartment and live out the rest of my life much as I do already cause I don't really aspire to anything but listening to more music and maybe taking some gnarly walks in nature or something?

You can get a higher paying job that you hate less so that you can buy more beer and comics.

You've never had your own place IIRC so you shouldn't be so quick to diss it. Even without kids/etc which I also don't want there are just tons of people living better lives than you and me as non married non fathers right now.

It's sad to say but the old cliche that money doesn't buy happiness is only half correct. You can be unhappy with money but not having enough directly causes unhappiness.
