Could You Go The Rest Of Your Life

[MistaFreeze]

Could you go the rest of your life with what you have? Kind of a broad question but think of it as a generalization. This would include what you own of electronics/media/current luxury.

 

[coldmeat]

living at my parents'? Hell no

 

[SandEagle]

what about the wimminz situation?

 

[Atomic Playboy]

Absolutely not. We live in a world where technology is constantly being upgraded. Could you imagine if you had to go through life today with a computer from 1986? You wouldn't be able to do anything on it. Who knows what technology will look like 25 years down the road? It's a good bet that we won't be able to interface with it on current tech. So if I can't upgrade anything, I'm pretty much going to be a pariah as technology outpaces what I have.

Do you mean that just I would be in a constant state of "sameness", or everyone would be (ie no new technology, games, shows, movies, etc...)

If the former, then no - eventually I want kids and probably a different job, being in better health, etc...

If it's the latter, then I guess I have no choice.

As long as technology didn't change, sure.

Groundhog Day was fun to watch, but I wouldn't want to live it.

I think somewhere along the line I'm going to need more food than is currently in the fridge.

 

[Locut0s]

No, on many fronts. Which is not to say I have a need to be wealthy.

I didn't think about that. But we have emergency food for 2 people for 30 days.

 

[CalvinHobbes]

As far as material items, yes. I have plenty and I'm very fortunate to have what I do.

I don't know. So long as you eventually died it might actually be interesting. Imagine being able to live ALL possibilities without real repercussions. Never having to say what if I had, because you HAD. Though maybe only for 10-15 years or so, after that you might indeed run out of everything to do and go insane.

 

[Lithium381]

yes, so long as everything stays the same and i wouldn't have to worry about loosing my job or my rent going up, i'd be golden!

Oh...<burp> sorry...I didn't know you were saving that. I got hungry.
