Is making money a goal in life?
 

My girlfriend seems to think I have no goals because my main goal is to have a successful business that makes money, whatever it might be.

Explain to her that money represents independence, security, freedom, power, social success, whatever.

ask your girl friend if she can pay the rent, food, bills, etc etc etc...

Anyway, most Girlfriends have problems with the amount of time their boys aka webmasters aka sponsors put in their work. The problem comes as soon they feel you spend to much time on inefficient work related to your company. Chatting, Emailing, watching content, etc etc etc

As long they DON'T love your work, they are forced to hate you for it in time

Just tell her to fuck off.

What are her goals?

She thinks I'm waiting for some kind of big pay off that will never come. Even though I make good money despite ups and downs in the income she sees it as unstable. I told her that its more about freedom, etc than anything else but she says those aren't goals either. Her goal is "advancing her career" and she says she feels she makes a difference. She works for the government doing income support for disablity. She pays her share of everything, I have no complaints about that but she just can't understand that there are other ways in life besides hers it seems.

Never take what a girl says seriously..

especially not a girl form Ottawa..

You're fucked.

She's basically telling you she disrespects you for not having a career which brings social prestige. When she gets the chance, she'll leave you for someone who does have such a career. Lawyer, doctor, politician, bureaucrat, etc. She wants someone who will impress strangers at parties by merely stating his job. She wants people to look at her and her partner, and say "Gee, what a lovely, successful couple!"

She's going to break up with you. It's just a matter of time.

Sounds to me like she's a retard with corporate mentality. I'm not sure you two are compatable, better kick her to the curb.

painfull to hear but you state a very good case. Did you by chance sleep at a holiday inn last night?

Sounds about right. Of course she denies it when I tell her that. We've been together for over five years now and every so often she gets on this. I was doing this long before I met her, so she knew what she was getting into but maybe she thought I would "evolve" as she puts it, lol.

this is so true.

That's really sad. Talk to her about that. Maybe she has a problem with that now.

work = money

money = time

Women usually look for someone they can look up to...

I say your girlfriend is wrong, or you are lying to yourself and you really you do nothin' all day

Making money is my primary goal. The amount of monthly income changes with the passing years. However my real goals are what I plan to do with the money and where I plan for it to take me. At the moment I haven't been on track with the "doing the stuff with the money" part of the plan.

Buy a house, invest in retirement, play the stock market (do own a few), eventually I'd like my job to simply be managing my money. Moving it around will be my full time job.

But yeah money is a top notch goal... People that work 9-5 never see it like that. They see vacations as goals.

I work to live,not live to work

girlfriends love and hate them that the way it is

glue her tits together

I have had 2 girl friends that said nearly the same thing, they couldnt understand why i wanted to sit at home doing my own thing online, when i could get a job in an office without porn... cant understand why some girls dosnt like/understand freedom and fun :D

Money is important but I respect the people who are not driven by it.

Agreed :2 cents:

Again, agreed 100% :2 cents:

with what, super cum glue lol:thumbsup

much better than the goal of the most girls, which is to have a man with goal to have successful business that makes money, whatever it might be

You should add "getting a new gf" to your goals.

she is right, if money is your prime goal, its gonna be an empty and disapointing life.

just a bitch. get rid of her.

she's a commie

money itself is not the goal (but very very usefull on your way to the goal)

That is ONE of my goals! Having a stable HIGH income!

what do your other girlfriends say? ... hopefully you don't have just one :Oh crap

Roflmao o brother.

In other words she's a dead-beat no brain busy body, working for the mother of no brain dead beat busybodies everywhere, namely, the government.

Tell her I said the only difference she makes is in the length of red fucking tape, and that the world would be a measurably better place without her.

Then shoot her.

Fucking retarded bitches.

Of course it is!

Money is great and it is nice to have alot as it does make things easier.
How ever my main goal is to make the most of my life and not take it for granted.
With all the shit that is around today you could be dead tommorow.

Of course money isn't the end all of my existance, far from it but in terms of business, its how I gage success.

Honey... I have determined that I do have a goal. I am determined to find someone who isn't a cunt. Leave asap. Ding the walls on the way out and I'll keep belongings of yours adding up to the value and cost of repairing them.

money can get you most anything you want really, and in about 15 years, it'll even buy you a healthy body and longevity

Her goal = security, explain a government job as well
You can only advance so much within the government so career does not seem to be the real reason.

It's difficult to understand for a lot of people that do not understand the online industry that it actually require a lot of, it makes it even more difficult to understand if you actually enjoy your work.

Saying her job makes a difference and yours don't is bullshit, both for online and offline it make a difference somehow to someone, if she really wanna be special and make a difference, ask her to do charity work instead, as long as it pays there will always be someone willing to take over and do the same :winkwink:

dream on

Wow that is so crazy I was going to say almost exactly this same thing.

me too :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

it's not your duty to explain that..
if ahe doesn't understand - it's her problems...
