Outline: - I’m not driven by money - Consumerism, junk, clutter and too much trash are bad - Having an average income to buy mass-produced and mass-available things is good - Being rich doesn’t give you much more to buy. Our society is bad at selling additional things worth having - “Expensive tastes” are bad - Semi on strike like John Galt - No differentiated work that helps power structures – don’t sell unique brains or morality - In our world, money doesn’t correspond well with productive achievement - Don’t help evil corporations like Google, Amazon, Coke, Nestle, big pharma, big banks, big oil (Alex Epstein shill) - Quiet quitting - Certain types of work are safer and can’t really be co-opted by the powerful - Science - Art - Philosophy - Hair stylist - Money, ownership, passive income or other wealth isn’t safe: - Government confiscation - Inflation - Wrong investments, e.g. stock or bond market crash - Scams, fraud, phishing, theft - Lawsuits - Natural disasters - Medical bills - Capability to earn is safer. Then you can do more work at the current market rate if needed If you disagree, see my debate policy: https://www.elliottemple.com/debate-policy Read my philosophy articles https://criticalfallibilism.com
