I saved up enough money for God of War III but I'm not going to buy it.

People blowing all money when thy are young tend to do the same when they earn mony. Once they realize with 40ish that they are screwed, they are in fact screwed.

Dont be dumb and start saving as early as possible.

Says a boy of 13! take it from me, of 38 years Saving is fine if you can afford to do the things you wish AND save. Never put future happiness before your happiness. That in its self is a gamble.

Exactly. God forbid we get hit by a car tomorrow and die. Betting on future happiness is a big gamble indeed. I know someone close to me who got into a car accident that was life threatening and it changed their perspective on life completely. If I died tomorrow, man there would be so many regrets. Having played Lost Odyssey and read all of these short story dreams, it's really damn depressing when you think "this guy Kaim is immortal but YOU and EVERYONE you care for are mortal. Your and their lives could be whisked away just as easily as it happened to those mortals that Kaim has lived with for 1000+ years." It's some heavy duty shit. I can't imagine what it would be like to be not conscious forever. I just can't. The thought of not having thoughts and just not existing. I can imagine what hitting rock bottom would be like. Being homeless, paralyzed from the neck down for life, having Alzheimer's Disease (this is worse than being homeless or paralyzed and it`s gonna happen to a shitload of us one day), etc. But the thought of not existing at all and having no thoughts? That`s something I can`t imagine.
