Those 10 years allow you to afford enjoying the other 50, it's not a horrible trade.

People in the us live to be around 78 (80 in the uk). Subtract 18 (since kids usually start working at 1 which leaves us with 60. So we have 60 "working years" and within those working years, we work about 3,720 days.. Which is about 10 years of life. Fuck that sucks. Correct me if I'm wrong btw.

I've read it's worse than even that: most people work full time, that's 40 hours per week x 52 weeks is 2080 minus vacation days, sick days, and holidays. A lot of folks work 50-60 hours now that the economy tanked, and that's at the same pay as 40 hours. Fuck that. For me it was an hour commute each way to the office, so that's at least 10 hours per day. If you sleep for 8 hours, you end up with 6 hours per day for yourself. That's more of your life to your job than time to yourself and what you enjoy...

True. Without working, I'd just be homeless and die before I reach age 30. Fair trade.. but still.. damn.

The most frustrating bit is that you have to work when you're best equipped to enjoy life to the fullest.

A thing very much worth keeping in mind is that for very many men, work/career is the foundation of life's meaning. I would have scoffed, until my capacity to work, and to contribute to society, was taken from me. cn

There are those who are lucky enough to find enjoyment in their profession. One day, I hope to be lucky enough to have a job I enjoy again.

Anyways there is my addition to this thread

Honestly, RIU surprised me with their views on illegal immigration. I mean why are they so gung ho about people breaking the law now? They never said anything to me whenever I mentioned breaking the law by smoking cannabis where I live. You can't just say all illegal immigrants should be kicked out. That's like saying all cannabis smokers that live where it's illegal are just a bunch of trouble makers. Bah..

Side question.. Are any of you guys racist?
