Ohhhhhh damn, you gotta remember to confine those comments that make actual sense to threads where people are really looking for advice. Lol

Besides, some of us know how to party hard enough to get the cops called for 'extra curricular activities' WITHOUT ever having an 'escort' involved!
All I was tryna say. Right there. lol

It's about the love of the grow, homie. Not 2-bit women with daddy issues or a whip that'll be outta season in 6 months. Lol. If you need hookers and cars to feel successful, who's the joker?
All kidding aside, what do you do to feel successful/fulfilled? Not a trick question. Tell me yours, I'll tell you mine.... :rolleyes:

I take care of 3 disabled people (my family) everyday, 24/7. I feel successful when at the end of the day, no one's hungry, no one's scared, and if I've made anyone's pain go away even for a minute, I'm a fucking rockstar as far as I'm concerned. I just don't understand the attachment to material goods. In my personal situation, we're just thankful for what we have at the end of the day. Never had much growing up, and certainly don't need it now. I think my "crowning achievement" will be when I finally get the girls into a wheelchair accessible house. Then we'll be successful and content. (I know, I know. Sob story, but it's my story. lol) TL:DR - I'm a minimalist and just want my tribe to be happy, safe, and pain free.

Plus we spend a lot of time volunteering at the local nursing home and I can tell you right now that all that material shit won't mean anything when you can't remember your kids names or what year you graduated. All that'll matter then is the disposition you acquired in life. The people who want to be close to you because of who you were. You can't take that shit with you. holmes.

Sounds to me like you have a serious case of having your priorities straight. Good on ya!

Can't take it with you, but it sure helps make picking nursing homes easier.

I have the gift of sight; I develop new systems and designs in my mind's eye, then I build them, test them- hard, lol- and iterate the designs to make them better/more robust/simpler.

Or, I build crazy shit to grow weed while saving time, space and money.

Wow that's beautiful. You found your music. :) Creative expression is an essential part of the human experience. And when you can make a symbiosis with plant life, even better.

You would think that. Except more often than not, when your mind goes, people screw you out of your assets. And when that doesn't happen, I can assure you that a feeding tube's a feeding tube in any facility. Most geriatric care is substandard at best.
My family is blessed with the ability to live really long lives, I've been through the process and you're absolutely right, of course.

One big reason I'm so damned busy all the time is simple recognition of the fact that I only have so long to get what I'm doing accomplished.

Ah, yes but that's also a reason to slow down. Because you only have so much time to enjoy. :)

Yeah, my symbiosis with society has been a lil more problematic; but then, no one else takes a felony rap for growing medicine very seriously, either.

Its not that I can't brag. I'm too paranoid too. People get jealous when they here your garage is full of proverbial cash. Even your best friend might turn on you. Noone respects anyone these days . I have one. Whos in with me. I trust him for now. But hey, I need him
Nobody gets jealous when they make more money than you just for the simple fact of seed selection power bills equipment and all. Plus when you have vicious dogs nobody is going to break in. Everyone is scared of my dogs and they ain't little pit bulls. Plus I have cameras and if I don't know you I'll still find you kill my dogs I'm giving you a hot dose of straight fentynal and it will be ruled just another dumb ass overdose and the police will be looking for dope dealers. :bigjoint:

Ways to do things in illegal states intimidation helps now sure a lot of growers do get robbed around here but they talk too fucking much.
