This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yea but you can also fuck up in the other direction after this realization. Nowadays I literally evaporate every thousand of currency I manage to get my little hands on.

Perhaps it is the climate collapse awareness. Why would I hoard stuff if it is near? Just to wait till the money loses all value? I need to liquidate some of those assets and buy a boat or smh when I still can. But I have this problem that this money lets me not work and not suffer so I can’t really use it unless I am 100% sure shit hits the fan next week.

I would call it being barely rich. You don’t feel rich, you can’t afford stuff but theoretically you are so it’s kind of weird. If you spend it you will stop being barely rich very fast. But if you won’t spend it you won’t ever feel rich.
