This actually works. It may not have been my dad’s intention or primary goal but he did pretty much all of this and I unconsciously grew up with unbelievable standards. It’s damn near impossible to impress me. This is probably why.
@YoursManfully@sourerdoe You could start by teaching him to be kind, build a personality (hobbies are a great way to do this) and develop a great non-insulting sense of humor.
i have no desire to be rich so i can buy a rolex or a lamborghini.
i want to be rich so i can control my time and go to the gym at 3pm on a monday.
sit at a cafe and relax for an hour on a rainy afternoon.
so i can cook meals at home with fresh ingredients.
spend on my family and friends without worrying about a budget.
that's my idea of a rich life, not the fake consumerist idea shoved down my throat.
@blow_charley@BlkBird444 1. He doesn’t care what you or anyone else thinks about his teeth

@josh_uglyasf She could also be a mom with an adult child who has kids, but she’s so young that she’s pregnant again so now she’ll have a son who is older than his niece or nephew. The son she is pregnant with makes her a pregnant grandma b/c she was already a grandma before she got pregnant.
@MagaAlphaMale@RossKneeDeep Obama didn’t set race relations back, he just triggered the under-the-radar racists to come out from their caves and show themselves. That racism seems like it’s fracturing America, but really it always has. Racists never wanted us united.
@MtShastaWriter@financedystop That’s a great idea! For Lynda’s comment, just put it in a trust and have rules that they need to invest into it if they expect anything from a sale. That keeps money for upkeep and designates who has a real interest vs others. Also, not everyone wants a farm. This is perfect.
