Money and no tme or time and no money

Just seems to be the cycle my life follows.
Either busier than a fly in an outhouse and plenty of cash to burn but no time to think beyond the cycle of work / spend / sleep.

OR Broke and plenty of time to chill and think of all the shit I could do if I had the extra cash to invest in materials & tool's.

Just looking for a consensus of opinion on which is the better of the two modes.

 

Broke, because life comes around all the time. If you are always busy you never get to get those things like karma and lucky 20$ ya know? (or less at least)

Was a tough question.

 

yeah, i know how that goes.

i slightly prefer time with no money, but both kind of suck really.

the best is the first couple weeks of having time, because you probably still have money left over from when you were busy, which you finally have the time to spend.

 

Sorry, but I don't vote.

 

Broke as hell with ton's of time and ideas, just no resources to back them.
Although the balance of the two is ideal for sanity's sake.

 

Right now Id rather have the money, and the job. Work keeps me busy, disciplined, and happy. I enjoy my job, and i enjoy sleeping. Life is good.

 

Money is just a means by which to acquire more time.

if you have money, but no time, you are using your money wrongly.

 

Money isnt the only currency...

 

life = time

 

did we tar and feather "moderation" and run it outta town on a rail or something?

 

More like horsewhipped out of town with a little 'adios amigo' sign taped to its back

Moderwhat?

Just that for the past couple of years I've been sort of moving allot and have spent most of the time working with a non for profit group for no pay. Now I'm working at this hostel for no pay cuz' business has been freaking slow. All sort's of things I could be doing out here if I had more cash. But i.e. the last time that happened I was on call 24/7 year round. Anytime I went to do things I wanted to I got called in, it was almost as if they had a camera on me,,, It was like being the main character in the Truman show.

I love it out here but getting sick of being hamstrung on projects due to lack of funds, been thinking of finding a gig as a field svc. technician or back into a factory setting doing industrial maintenance and building up my tool collection again. I just need to find a way to ensure that I either have time to do my thing or at least not drink all my savings away when I reach the burnout point with being overworked like I did last time.

Eh', just thinkin' out loud.

 

kicking it the whole way. except for the lazy, broke fuckers. they sat there and compained.

 

Right now I have neither time nor money.

yet, I prefer having no time but lotsa stacks.

 

financial security and a full schedule do bring their own rewards.

 

Yup. I think I just need to find a gig that allows for a balance between the two. Kinda' rare in my usual profession.

 

If I had to choose, I would say time and no money, cause I could spend time with people I love.
At moment I have time and money, due to a decent severance package for getting laid off. But as the money dwindles, I do realize that it is needed, so I would say you just have to find a balance, between working enough to stay comfortable, and enjoying life. Even if that means you cant afford going on a grand vacation every year.

My motto is as the great song says...
"Don't Worry, Be Happy"

 

just enough money and lots of time to be creative with it would be the best combination.
not enough to impress anybody but enough to not have to worry about getting in trouble for not having what not having it means having to live without.

i really don't give a rat about money itself, but love to create and wish there were some way/place where you didn't have to buy land to live completely in and surrounded by what you create yourself.

not being allowed to do that, build and live in without buying a house or land, is really the biggest major thing wrong with where i live and with its forcing its ways on the rest of the world.

 

I swear money is evil

 

I've always been more fond of the barter process myself, but WalMart and Sportsmansguide wont take labor in exchange for goods it seems.
