Find out what you love but if itās not lucrative then find something else you love. Making lots of money and enjoying your career are equally important. Money makes a lot of things possible, for example buying groceries and living in a nice house.
Mr. Rat, you donāt need to get drunk because marijuana is legal now in many states.

My cosmopolitan extended-barrio has only one Playboy-class person who wears such. She has nearly started riotsā¦old RW ranchers, slobbering on themselves and gabbling under their breathsā¦a couple of the local atv cowboys needed first aid, but sheās stingy with mouth-to-mouth with strangers. I took the old guyās nine-gallon hat and fanned him with it.

Well, as long as you keep your standards high, Rat

This reminds me of the experiment where they put a rat in a cage with morphine, and the rat overdoses until he dies. Our Rat doesnāt need the cage.

Success is all in the measuring.By the measure of what I could be, Iām an abject failure. By the measure of what everyone thought Iād be, Iām a resounding success. The truth is always somewhere in the middle.
