No skills, some bills

Having no money is perhaps the most disheartening thing around. After death, illness, breakups, unemployment, loneliness... okay, there are more disheartening concepts, but thin-walletedness is truly depressing.
I don't like money controlling what we can and cannot do, so definitively. I can't eat what I want to. I can't see things I would like to. I can't buy comfortable underwear. Comfort, I believe, is what money would truly bring. A common adage is that money does not bring happiness, but I have to say that the times where my worrying levels are at their lowest is when my checking account is at its highest. "It's cool man, I'll spot you." - Perhaps the best sentence that one can utter.
