If 100 people your age were chosen at random,

how many do you think you'd find leading a more satisfying life than yours?

I'm going to say 50. 5 years ago maybe 2, 3 years ago 10.

Looks like I've been in quite the slump. How about you?

i have only 3-4 relatively minor problems

1 major character flaw that i will probably die with

IS that character flaw the fact that you exaggerate how good your life is? If so, I don't know if this will be accurate 😉
 
I'd say less than 50. Fact is most of the 100 I know my age (at least from back home; and no I don't know 100 people so I'm just speculating) are living at home or have a crappy unhappy life. I feel quite lucky.
 
I could only have a more satisfying lifestyle if:

I lived west of the Mississippi and that is coming soon I hope.

If I had a LOT more money. Not coming soon sorry to say.

Im good.

I'm discontent with only two facets: 1) My job is fairly boring and not particularly fulfilling.
2) I wish I personally made more money.

Course that ties in to point 1. So basically I wish had a more rewarding fulfilling enjoying job. Really though career/money is utterly worthless when compared to the importance of health, family, etc. So I do count my blessings.
 
I sure as hell could be doing worse.

I've got a decent apartment for a good price in a super convenient, non-ghetto neighborhood, a credit card balance that will be $0.00 in 4 days, and no other debts. I've got my own car and a steady job that nets me $15-25 bucks an hour. I'm really getting my sh!t together, and keeping it together. I'm going to school again, and doing OK at that. I'm finally a going for a real college degree, rather than some BS technical certificate.

I've also got this girlfriend who's pushing me away for reasons that she does not make clear to me, but hey, if she's pushing me away, I'm going to cut my losses and just go away, not get mad (Hmm, is she reaching, or pushing? It sucks, but it could be worse. I could be a jealous, angry person with a chip on my shoulder).

I know I'm doing OK for myself. Others might think my apartment is too small, or my car is too old, but that doesn't matter to me, because that stuff doesn't bring me satisfaction. I know that, because I've tried. All I ended up doing was working to pay for a nicer apartment and car, and I wasn't happy at all.
