I laugh at people who say they're poor when they buy $5-$7 cups of coffee daily and buy new iPhones every year then go home to there smart home with all the bells and whistles. This is similar to those who say they have no free time yet they have time to watch 3-9 hours of football on Sunday and if they follow college football then the same on Saturday, work on their hobbies on their off time etc. People can always make time for family and loved ones. No, it means I chose not to stay still with how my life was and I chose to put in the work to improve it. Come back when you're handling a family+household, going to school full time, working over 50 hours a week and studying for certs on top of all that. Football time is generally mixed in with additional work. Fmbl2187, azchief21, Calichief and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did pretty much the same thing and regret spending time with my kids as they grew up. I thought that volunteering to deploy to every where in the world all the time was so important. Now, 20 years later I see how much I missed. Life's not worth it if you don't enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIfe would be pretty dull without the power to make choices and follow our dream, and it would be pretty dull without regrets, too. Who are we to judge someone else in their life choices, unless they choose to do something illegal, right? Just my two cents as an old guy. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with that... as long as the chooser is held responsible for his/her choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with that, as long as the chooser holds themselves responsible. The only way someone else should stick their nose in it is if the chosen action is illegal. Otherwise, it is nobody else's business. That is kind of a response to CF63. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I don't give a damn what anyone does with their own time. I initially responded to the comment that some don't have any free time in their life. My point is if you want free time you'll make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
