In a perfect world it would be great to not have to rely on the economy and the tax system etc etc etc. But in the real world, for now that is the way it is
On relection I was happier when I had nothing earlier on in life and would truly not really miss the materialistic stuff it dissapeared tomorrow.
As the kids are getting older and most of the earnings I worked for was to give them a nice home and comforts they needed while growing up, I see myself being a slave to system coming to a halt

.
We all have to survive in this play called life and the Economy, whether you like it or not is a huge part of the PLAY !
So you cannot blame people for wanting too look after their interests they have aquired by working most of their lifes, They are just fitting in with playing the game and surviving in the world as it is.
There is a big difference between playing smart with the economy that is in place and Greed.
Greed is what gets people in trouble and should be avoided IMO .
