Author Topic: Steve Jobs, 1955-2011 Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 10-09-2011 03:04 AM                        Money is only valuable because we insist that it is. It always humors me that everyone cares so damn much about it, as if the world will stop spinning without it.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 10-09-2011 03:20 AM                     What Joe said.

Just send it all to me if you don't want it.  |  IP: Logged Ian Parfrey Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1049 From: Imbil Australia 26 deg 27' 42.66" S 152 deg 42' 23.40" E Registered: Feb 2009 posted 10-09-2011 10:09 PM                     Not sure if this is relevant, but I like to do what I do NOT because of the money, because as we all know there ain't no money to be made in exhibition anymore, but because I LOVE doing what I do- and that is projecting film- ideally at a drive in. I don't care about the money and no longer will. Trouble is, my bank DOES. Cue GFC Mk.

People would ask you what you do for a living. You're reply would be "I deal with money". Wow. Way to make a difference in the world. Way to make it a more enjoyable place to be. You really matter! The fact is, humans have made money more important than human life. It is the #1 thing most people care about mainly because it is the #1 thing everyone else cares about. Without it, people other than your closest friends and family don't want to have anything to do with you. Once you have more than an average amount of it, then suddenly everyone wants to be your "friend". That's why I'm friends with Brad Miller and I've gotten 3 private jets out of the deal!  |  IP: Logged
