When you lose in life, don’t lose the lesson
Not in the mood today. Had a hell of an emotional rollercoaster of a day. I’m exhausted, and feel like shit. The upside was huge, but later came the downer, and it took away all energy and happiness. Everything is alright, nothing that can be repaired. Just time and money lost. Don’t really want to […]

Long-hard Friday, but with a Saturday Reward in the Horizon
Today has possibly been one of the days that I have worked the most recently. More than the work itself, it was the other errands added, and the VARIOUS trips I had to make multiple times. Suddenly, you realized you’ve been out of the house all day, you’re in the middle of your exercise routine, […]

Stop working your life away, and start making time to spend that money doing what you want
Money money money. I need that money to pay debts and keep traveling. If it were to stop traveling, I would already be at least halfway to zero debt balance. But for what? I’m going to buy a house? Nope. Am I going to have a child in the near future? Nope. Do I have […]

A [short] reflection on mistakes, time and money
![A [short] reflection on mistakes, time and money](https://bustibusti.files.wordpress.com/2022/10/bearing_weight.jpeg?w=1024)
Mistakes cost lives, money and time. Lives are the most horrible because when they are lost and, they never come back, causing pain to everyone near and dear. Time passes without being able to stop. Time that wasn’t well-spent does not necessarily mean time wasted. When you lose in life, at least you gain a […]

To pizza or not to pizza; that is the question
A client left me a full box of pizza in the fridge. “Hey, we ordered two of them, and only ate one. Feel free to help yourself to the other one. We’re certainly not going to eat it.” Why?! Why would someone just offer me 8 slices of gourmet pizza? Is this a sign? Is […]

Are we at the bottom yet?
Spent about 3 hours today (and a hell lotta money) balancing the embarrassment that is my current stocks portfolio. Did a good job (considering my liquidity). But It’s bad, and it keeps getting worse. Incredibly enough, I could have cashed out a few weeks ago and break even overall, turning profits on a couple of […]

The closest thing to a perfect visit, is now coming to an end
Tonight is the last night, and then we’re back to normal. Too much alcohol, too much food, too much driving, too much spending…Too little sleep, too little rest, too little work accomplished, too little planning… But the most important thing of all, the fundamental thing in all this, is that the best possible time was […]

One of those days at work, but gotta pay the bills with the least amount of effort possible
My dream job? None, I do not dream of labor. Second on the list? Getting paid to write and/or take care of animals. Anything that allows me to have as little contact with human beings as possible. Because they will screw you, or try to, eventually; guaranteed. Not gonna get into specifics, but I gotta […]

Work advice, lesson, wisdom… Get it, and improve your quality of life
For better or worse, I decided very early in my adult life that the vertical career path was not for me. Starting entry-level, climb up the ranks, grind every day, promotions, reach new corporate levels, get the bread, get the position, achieve “success”. Just imagining all this disgusts me. I cannot fathom how people do […]
