  I never quite understand the point of working in general. Don't get me wrong. But I think that, 5 days a week, the whole day, you do something that you don't like, as in I'm sure if given a choice you wouldn't wanna work, just to get paid and enjoy the weekends is pointless. Why do we work? To get money. For what? To enjoy our free time. What free time?? But in the end do we have a choice? Cos if we don't work we ain't surviving. Thats why I hope to learn investing and such. So I don't have to work, but I have money growing and working for me at the same time. But I gotta start somewhere eh? Hope what I wrote is understandable.
