BIG PAPER

My perspective on how to live a good and meaningful life is to work until you are 37 and you really dont need to work anymore, invest in a successful company, retire , have 3 kids with a beautiful wife, or two, have the best cars, be very close friends with all celebraties, but most importantly be a wonderful parent and husband, teach them life lessons and moral lessons and raise them properly so they can one day follow in your foot steps. I spoke to my mother about this and her perspective on a good and meaningful life is for her to retire in 5 years, leave us here and move to her home country where she can be with people she actually loves, I was kind of dissapointed hearing that, but then I realized me and her have the same thing in common. The dominant corporate perspective on how to live a good and meaningful life is to be rich and have a family where everyone is happy all the time, although this is never true in any family, in my opinion at least. Then theres the marginal corporate message which basically is you work hard until your 60 retire, have your kids support you and work and make sure your kids get a good education.
