Camus's "Most important question"
The answer is figure it out ur damn self. I'm neither of those things and constantly working towards creating the life i want to live now that im financially secure. I can concede it's probably a lot easier for me since idc about cars or a bigger house or having a family. Video games, books, music, camping, animals, and nature provide plenty of pleasure and cost very little.

Society has no job. Society just is. If I were more motivated to achieve a middle class lifestyle I'd still be miserable because society is useless.

But I thought this argument started cause you disagreed that being middle class was better than being poor
My argument is that being middle class solves nothing except being poor. There are far more problems with being a human being than simply being poor and solving those problems requires you to ignore middle class lifestyle because middle class lifestyle is useless for solving them.

Yeh but when you're poor it's often your number 1 problem

So I call solving that... How do you say it... Progress?

Bull****. We have an entire civilization telling you how to be, what to think, and what your goals should be. "Figure it out ur damn self" is a ****ing lie. Society tells you only how to be something that benefits society and if that isn't something that benefits you then society is an enemy.

Dear god you're basic. Why not just kill yourself if the only problem to solve is to not be poor. That's such an empty problem with such an empty solution that ignores 99% of the human mind.

Fair enough I just don't think you actually understand what it means to be worried about keeping a roof over your head

And i don't know what it's like to be middle class and still worry about not having culture or a sailboat or whatever it is :p

Well when I was your age I was traveling around the world doing ****. Now I’m tired. I’m not even trying to be woe is me. I’m just saying at this point I don’t mind being idle. Malaise sinks in without pills though.
