You're adorable. In about 20 years, you'll be praying to be bored in the middle of a weekday.

Wish I had the money to do it.


A life with no schedule is only boring if you are broke AND not very creative.

I'm never bored unless I'm at work. My job gets in the way of my hobbies.

You can get bored at work as well. Just because you have something to do it doesn't mean you have something interesting to do.

Agreed. I hear these people that say they could never retire, have to be busy doing something, etc. Not me. I've worked my entire life since I was 12 years old (putting into SS, I actually worked before that for cash). If I had the money, I could do nothing most days. Buy a lot of fun shite and go fun places. Then do nothing again.

You'd get bored. You'd need to find something to give you a reason to get up in the morning. For me it would be fishing or golf. Going to the beach would be up there too. But just going somewhere to sit and not do anything gets boring too.

I was unemployed and only had Uber as an income for about a year. That was pure hell

I'd almost rather collect unemployment than work retail for the same amount of money

1. Lowe’s isn’t a real job?

2. What qualifications do you have to think you could just walk into a lowe’s and get a job on the spot?

Maybe. I'd sure give it the old college try though.

And btw, I'd leave my house and shite, not like lock up and become a hermit.

1. Yes, but it's not a career to most people.

2. Retail jobs are almost always hiring and your experience isn't always important. They just need bodies and training is easy.

I usually wake up, go for a jog, come home do some honey do projects, shower, take a nap, wake up around 1, read a book, watch some TV, start cooking supper, play on TD, eat. Go to sleep.... Some days go play Top Golf, to the movies, meet friends for lunch, go to the park, go to New Orleans and see the sights.
