word, did you spend time in the peace corp, or am i thinking of somebody else?

 

no I am not in the peace corps, but its a good organization to donate to, or if you want to travel volunteer.

also US AID and Red Cross, we work with those dudes on the regular and they seem to be doing good things in third world areas

The second link I posted isn't religion based, and seems to do a lot of really awesome shit for kids as well as animals.

 

 

This one is to save a girl from indentured servitude.

 

It takes only $50 to rescue a girl from virtual slavery, bring her home to live with her family, pay her school expenses for six months, and compensate her parents for her lost wages. $100 pays these expenses for a year, while $350 rescues a girl and supports her education for six years, so that she can graduate from the 10th grade and have the necessary tools to support herself. Your donation covers her school uniforms, books, school fees, and a kerosene lamp and kerosene -- highly valuable items in a region lacking electricity.

They also have where you can save kids from Malaria, give them clean drinking water, and a number of other really cool (and basic) things.

You should check the second link, it's really awesome.

 

They also have a store on the site for various items and each item you buy, they provide a number of bowls of food to animal shelters (depending on which item you buy)..and everything is very reasonably priced (if not cheap)

I think it's a good thing what these people are doing.

Seriously dude why would I lie?

 

Is it so hard for your broke ass to believe that some people on 12oz actually make good money and enjoy spending it on some finer things in life.

 

Jealous much?

 

 

 

You said that you flew to Vegas just to spend a G on dinner.

You're full of shit.

 

Lie on the internet much?

Your mom pays me for my "services".

She even flew me out to Vegas once just to have dinner.

She dropped about a G on Sushi.

she is still telling her friends about it

 

they dont believe her at all. mainly they dont believe the part about you freezing a cheesesteak and having her shove it up your ass. i also thought it was weird.

You really are a jealous broke ass.

We actually flew to Vegas for 8 nights.

 

I'm assuming you have no idea how much a private reservation is with chef Joel Robuchon or even know who he is.

 

Keep living the doublewide dream, maybe one day you can afford an amuse-bouche from chef Colicchio instead of the value menu from chez McDonalds.

 

Arguing with you just solidifies how ghetto you really are, you need to shape up kid.

Around 12oz you have post count clout, on the street you have hand me downs and your kids have extra chromosomes.

not to agree with DAO

but spending that kind of money for dinner is fucking lame. Like this thread said; there are starving kids, recessions, and really other shit you can be doing with your money.

 

Like saving it for when you lose your job

Finer things in life? Dude, Life is the finer thing.

Fuck material goods, what the hell does it get you? Can your 56in plasma tv give you a hug?

 

Laughing

Loving

Living is fine

 

Not rounds of gay ass golf and 50 dollar steaks that you are going to poop out later

I agree that fine dining is not for everyone.

Some people drink Grey Goose and some drink valuePollaski vodka, they both achieve the same results but IMO one tastes better.

 

I don't really care about starving kids, they're not my problem.

 

We make great investments and both my wife and me work hard so when we get a chance to unwind we do it up.

If you had a good paying job are you saying you'd just let it sit in the bank or would you want to experience some finer things in life?

 

I don't golf, I have lots of friends that want me to start but I'm not interested in spending my money on that. I do own some high priced material goods but in general we spend majority of our money on experiences and vacations.

I work for the government...so I do have a decent paying job.

 

I dont care about material goods

I make most of my own shit or trade with people

My money goes towards food that we dont grow ourselves, bills, and I do also go on vacations and travel. Just not over prices spending spree vacations. I do it real and see what the people see, eat what the people eat.

 

I dont need a high class chef to give me food

3 dollar kebab stands, decent conversations, laughs, and good friends give me happiness.

 

I dont need a expensive car, I can afford one..but I would rather ride my bike cause I enjoy being outdoors

 

I help out all I can, give money to starving african kids, volunteer around work and in the community.

You need to change your attitude about success
