Harsh, I feel for ya JFK... its certainly not what you want to remember your friend as...

Never ever, my life is too good. I'm not a millionaire but I earn good money, I have great friends, I have a hot girlfriend and I live on a small island where its sunshine and hot weather 8 months a year.

I've also never uttered the words "I wish I was dead" either. Heard friends say that at times and thought what a fucking moron wishing life away. I'd rather be flat broke - just getting by paycheck to paycheck - and healthy with good with friends than mind blowingly rich and alone.

I never considered it seriously, but the idea crossed my mind once or twice.

Get help, Man.

No. I bk'ed $1.7M a year ago. Went from a 4k sqft. extravagant pool home, w/ nanny and maid. Vacations 2x yearly and two nice cars to... zero possessions.

Bankruptcy didn't even phase me.

Two ways to look at it: live and learn (or) shit happens.

Anyone at the point of seriously looking over balconies, needs to be medicated for a biochemical imbalance caused by overwhelming stress and possible lack of sleep.

my cousin killed himself in 1996. his uncle killed himself in 2000. so my family has a history of it. me, never. as far as fianaces go, i'm too conservative to loose anything. also too conservative to actually make a huge jump up lol.

if i somehow lost it all, i'd move to a remote island in Thailand (likely Koh Bulon), build a thatch hut, and live off of the land. one hell of a lot better than offing yourself. all you need is a plane ticket, and you can live on nothing, and still have a good life.

You obviously arent married or have kids.
If I went to a remote Island they would find me. So would everything and everyone else im trying to get away from.

I think it would be easier to just pull a trigger.
Thank God I dont have a gun anymore.

Ill just self destruct in other ways.

lot of self destructive people in this thread:2 cents:

Fitty.....................suicides are painless, bring on many changes...................

no and never ....due to my eight year old daughter

decisions... live or die.

life is a gift, treat it well and it will treat you well.
many people especially younger adults dont realize that crucial decisions becomes baggage later in life and you cannot just re-set the game and start over...

but i never could understand why wall street'ers would jump out their window when they went bust.. shit and failure happens, just deal with it and enjoy the finer things in life..

I have a good friend who lost his wife to suicide last weekend. I don't know but I think suicide is more about mental stability than being depressed . She was drinking and partying a few hours before she killed herself.

I have made and lost (a few times) more money than most of my friends will ever see, and if their is one thing I have learned it is:

Having millions dollars isn't special, but having the ability to make millions of dollars is. If you make a lot of money and loose it, as long as you keep the confidence which was necessary to make it in the first place no one can stop you from getting it back.

I have lost over a million dollars recently on an investment (Lehman failure).
Didn't even lose any sleep...
It wasn't my whole portfolio so I was grumpy for a day or so perhaps.

I have also made millions from investments and avoided crazy spending sprees.

High Risk / High Reward investing is not for the squeamish.

I don't know about you guys, but I at least believe in the possibility of Hell, and I also believe in the possibility that if you commit suicide, you're going to Hell, so no - I will never seriously think about committing suicide for that reason alone.

1 lifetime of shit compares nothing to forever in hell.

I may be depressed at times but never suicidal

Soylent Green

not really... the idea is interesting... but with a family i couldn't even comprehend the thought

thanks Hank - actually it was just shear curiosity - I was watching criminal minds in an eposode where terrorists did their act and then committed suicide. thought it would be an interesting topic of discussion.

been an interesting thread though... the topic brings out a lot of 'real' in a lot of people

thats just silly. If we even go somewhere after we die, we will all go to the same place.. suicide, homicide, old age, it all doesnt matter. Nature will not be selective like it's santa clause by looking who has been a good boy or not.

Suicide is for cowards who can't deal with life as it is. My last GF's ex-husband committed suicide right before I met her. Sad thing is they had 2 young children together. He was "trying to show her" but all it did was fuck up the kids. So sad...

I know you like to get a rise with your threads but the way you been talkin lately had me a little worried:(

Glad thinks aren't as they appear:thumbsup As I said, if you ever need to,,,Hit me up:)

there's a suicide pill you can get in Mexico. I read an article on FAILED suicides and no matter what method you use it is not fail safe and there are wards full of people with half blown off faces and vegetables who know they could have lived a normal life.

I never wanted to do it but I did plan how to do it if it ever came to that and not leave a body. Jump off the back of a ship with a backpack full of weights! Only bad point is the 3 minutes it takes to drown is meant to be very long and painful.

I think that I fucked things off pretty fucking badly
But knowing I've still got it is enough for me to never contemplate it
Even though my deals are very low end now I still got it

Knowing that you could make such ridiculous decisions as this guy did and tank something big that could have been saved 100 ways .. well of course the guy has suicidal thoughts .. I try to tell you that this guy is a classic case .. when he shows up dead, then what?

I don't like the motherfucker .. but if you're a close acquaintance of his, you should do something to help him .. just being completely incompetent in business is no reason to die .. and even incompetent idiots make it in business, every day .. if they just keep things simple and apply some common sense

Someone needs to get him by the hand and let him know that he CAN make it and be okay.. you can tell from his writings that he's NOT okay, inside. It'd be a shame for some retard to die over some stupid shit he's done. We ALL have fucked something up at one time or another.

A huge percentage of suicides happen this time of year - all the *unfortunates* realise just how little they have in the way of love and life.

am I the only one that noticed sleazy(?) made no spelling mistakes in this thread??? wtf?

How did you manage to blow THAT kind of money? Of course, 1 million in Canadian is worth a lot less than 1 million American with the taxes you guys pay up there.

I can relate to your situation though. I have gone through a lot of crap in the last few years, loss of job, eviction: massive debt, and by-pass surgery AFTER my Cobra expired. I was even homeless for a brief period over the holidays last year, living in my car with a raging case of pneumonia. I lost all my adult domains and had to start from scratch again, and it is nowhere nearly as easy as it was back in 1999 when I started. I owe hundreds of thousands and will probably need to file for bankruptcy myself soon. That's one of the reasons I come off sounding like an angry son of a bitch sometimes. I made tons of foolish choices when I had lots of money. Only a few years ago I was making over 100k from adult sites and combined with my job I was doing very well, but I spent too much $$ on strippers and fun times and ignored my health. But I have never seriously thought of killing myself. Sure, it crosses my mind every so often when things are shitty as Hell, but I have never had any serious thoughts. Although it might be hard to believe from my posts, I'm actually a pretty positive and likable guy. I wonder if your recent chest pains were brought on by stress. Best of luck to you.

he outsources half his threads. the *cough* "business" threads are all his, the attention whoring / suicidal ones he has some depressed indian writing them for him for 14 rupees per hour.

My father died via suicide last year and after seeing how it devastated certain members of my family I would have to say I could never do such a thing.

Plus, when you suicide your other family members are much more likely to do the same. Look at Hemingway for a perfect example.

I personally have no problem with a person who has lived a good life to end it on their terms once their health gets to the point where 24 hour care 365 days a year will be needed to stay alive (if it were not for how it affects the people you leave behind). I am the only person in my family who believes this way as everyone else is very religous.

My father had 2 bad kidneys, diabetes, could hardly walk some days. He had been a strong man all his life and did not want to go out in some care facility where people had to wipe his ass. He decided to end his life on his terms. In his mind he was doing the noble thing because this way he still had part of his estate and that went to help set my mother up for a long time.

But I could never do it regardless if how bad things got because of the way it can affect the ones you leave behind :2 cents: Someday I have to tell my daughter how her Grandfather died :(

no, never

Life is to beautiful to end it. And when you think about ending it, there is always a reason to just stretch it for another day.

Suicidal ideas are based on fear for most of the part. A fear to come clean to your friends, family or whatever. To Kill Yourself you need a few good basic motivations in your background. A nice traumatic life experience from zero years to 20 years would be a nice kick off. A few nasty habits, like gambling or drugs... Causes depressions and speeds up the End of Line vision....

A suicidal person might want attention, but it is mostly forgiveness they want for the mistakes they made.

------For the thinkers about death....
If you think about ending your life while reading this, i`ll invite you on my farm for a fresh breath taking experience that gives you power for life again. No costs, just pay the ticket and I`ll do the rest

And to cope with it, you make mind numbing posts 24/7... :upsidedow

I did a search on your nick plus the word "pain", and you have bitched about your pain at least 150 times (150 is the max number of search results, which prevented me from getting a complete count).

I've never thought of suicide, but I have thought of going down to the shed grabbing an axe and chop up random people out on the street.

I have to admit that when my house burnt down last week for a day I wish I had died in the fire. Not sure if it was from shock or what, one week before x-mas.

Damn, that is terrible news
