  • As someone who is currently working at a company that has no problems of cash flow yet is still penny pinching, often on things that would actively save costs after an initial serious investment, yes, I would not change and most probably burn through that money to do positive things for people.

    I also have a tendency to look as how things might happen down the road, so time is not really that much of a concern for me.

    With so much money at my discretion, I can say with a fair degree of confidence I’d been putting money into projects amd initiatives I would most probably never benefit from their results.

    But would I be popular or well liked in that endeavour? I seriously doubt.




  • The following can be filed under the “too much information”.

    My airways act very weird when I get a cold or something is afecting my air ways. My nose tends to feel clogged but I have nothing to discharge, even if I feel the need to. I often have to force ouy whatever there may be backed up in there, often to the point I get light headed and/or dizzy. The first wave is usually clear and very low in volume. The second wave often brings out a deluge of yellow greenish mucus (good sign) or a blob of green greyish stuff, often with blood spots or small strikes (very bad). The third wave makes my ear pop and causes me to start coughing and pull up more gunk that then start to flow without the need for me to try to blow my spine from my back.

    Lemme share something with you people.

    Eggs are still stupid cheap, today. However, there are too many greedy people between the producer and people that need them for eating.

    My everyday job has me go around to places most will not go and one day I discovered an egg farm, somewhat off the beaten path, that sells directly. Only requirement is that they sell a minimum of thirty eggs (a tray).

    I made a few questions and now I’m bringing eggs weekly from there, invoiced to me by weight. No size distinction but most eggs are L size. Roughly speaking, each egg is 0,1667€, with VAT already included. The same egg in supermarkets is sold anywhere between 6 to 11 cents more expensive.

    That’s too much.



  • I fell off a first floor balcony, helping in a move. Landed on a bush, bounced off it, and came to a stop on a stone paved floor, after breaking a kitchen cabinet with my shoulder and back.

    Cut my brow on a twig in the bush, twisted my left ankle, scraped my left shoulder, elbow and hand.

    Would do it again.

    Hadn’t I leaned too forward to release a foot of the cabinet, it would have tumbled down onto another person, with no warning, straight into their head.

    So… worth the scars and bruises.
