Bear with me while I quote these two Christians.

โ€œAdults devise a financial plan and follow it. Children do what feels good.โ€

- Mark 10:13-16


Iโ€™ve not read the bible, but Iโ€™m making an assumption. Financial planning is the devil's work.

Iโ€™m living like little children. Iโ€™m doing what feels good, all the way to the pearly gates. Iโ€™m calling off budgets and Iโ€™m calling in abundance. Money is fake and dirty; beyond comprehension, Archonic traps, soiled with usury. Iโ€™ve decided Iโ€™m spending and spending on my desires, never-ending. Iโ€™ve got the support of church and state. ๐•ฎ๐–”๐–“๐–˜๐–š๐–’๐–•๐–™๐–Ž๐–”๐–“ ๐–Ž๐–˜ ๐–™๐–๐–Š ๐–˜๐–”๐–‘๐–Š ๐–Š๐–“๐–‰. Adam Smithโ€™s blessing. Iโ€™m stimulating the market and itโ€™s stimulating me. Iโ€™m doing what feels good.

Iโ€™m not working, but Iโ€™m working. Consumption is my profession and debt is my duty. Paying off that debt with debt is my creative side hustle.

My prayer hands are shaking.





Because Iโ€™ve been parking wherever I want this week and Iโ€™ve racked up 10 tickets. Iโ€™ve got my offshore virtual assistant handling it, my Senegal secretary at $า‰6า‰  an hour. She is paying off my citations, reserving my hotel stays, and securing me a solid supply of Ivermectin. She is combing the web for workmanโ€™s jackets with just the right amount of wear-n-tear; jackets from god-fearing farmers with way more debt than me, and way less fun to show for it. Those fools thought they were farming food, but they were farming vintage; that working-class look is trending. Everyone is after a garment has been blessed by someone elseโ€™s honest labor. Fuck your soybeans, rancher. Iโ€™ll buy your ragged threads instead, for $า‰1า‰5า‰0า‰ .

Iโ€™m eating red meat, and I want to look like Iโ€™m the one who killed it.





Iโ€™m buying $า‰1า‰0า‰0า‰ New York strips with fat caps as thick as 2 cam girls. Iโ€™m taking a bite and tossing the rest. โ€œ๐•ฟ๐–๐–Š ๐–‡๐–†๐–“๐––๐–š๐–Š๐–™ ๐–Ž๐–˜ ๐–Ž๐–“ ๐–™๐–๐–Š ๐–‹๐–Ž๐–—๐–˜๐–™ ๐–‡๐–Ž๐–™๐–Š,โ€ as they say. Iโ€™d sure hate to say that on a refugee raft. Iโ€™m only kidding. Iโ€™m I just donated $า‰5า‰5า‰5า‰  to an NGO helping those displaced by war and climate. Iโ€™m turning my debt into tarp shelters and bags of rice. I want everyone to feel good.

Yes, Iโ€™m tithing with abandon. Iโ€™m slinging bills at all the ๐™„๐™ฃ๐™™๐™ž๐™š๐™œ๐™ค๐™œ๐™ค๐™จ and ๐™‚๐™ค๐™›๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™™๐™ข๐™š๐™จ. The artists are finally getting paid, and everybodyโ€™s mom is getting the surgery they need. But please, donโ€™t call me and tell me about your mamaโ€™s melanoma melodrama. Iโ€™ve got $า‰5า‰0า‰ bucks for you; take it, and stop bumming me out. I donโ€™t have an ear to lend or a shoulder for tears, but I have dollars. Take my dollars. I need to get back what feels good.

Because tonight Iโ€™m rolling 10 deep in Vegas. We are heading out for body sushi and weโ€™re all taking turns on the table. Iโ€™ll be nude, save for the sashimi ๅˆบใ— flown in from Kyushu ไน ๅทž, surrounded by beautiful chop-stickinโ€™ influencers from every shade on the gender diapason. Weโ€™re mixing MDMA and Sake ้…’. We are playing with a childโ€™s abandon. Kingdom bound. Our hedonic amp is cranked toใ€๏ปฟ๏ผ‘๏ผ‘ใ€‘.

I could care less about the bill.





My friends look at me worried. My liabilities are impressive. My payments donโ€™t touch the interest. But what the hell do I care? $า‰1า‰0า‰0า‰ month for unlimited funds, thatโ€™s how I see it. Iโ€™m in the red, but I never feel it. Easy come and easy go are blending together. Itโ€™s just easy. Cause itโ€™s easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get a pass to heaven, right? Iโ€™m poor on paper, Peter; let me through them pearly gates! I want, so badly, for pleasure to be prayer.

I stressing. Iโ€™m hedging. Iโ€™ve got my virtual assistant working on it; my Senegal savior. Sheโ€™s spending 3 hours a day meditating on my abundance. Sheโ€™s focusing her third eye chakra on a vision of my financial happiness. A vision of me free as a little child, on a beach, in the arms of JC. But I getting mixed up. There is only one set of footprints in this sandy scene. Apparently, heโ€™s carrying me? Either that or Iโ€™m alone. Am I alone? Iโ€™m definitely alone. I hope Iโ€™m not alone.




The dollars are falling from my hands like angels from heaven. I donโ€™t feel so good.
