its why having a mediterranean attitude towards work is always a good thing. work should only be seen as a means and a tool to better ourselves and our condition, our live should never revolve around work. even the medieval peasant farmers worked much less hours than the average american does today, and greed alongside with constant work without break only harms the body and spirit.

@ferrarilegends it's really common for some reason to see Arabs as lazy and not wanting to work (in fairness, nobody wants to work, honestly) but the harsh fact is that they're strongly protective of the "life" in "work life balance". They find it really strange that White people have been duped into working more than 40hrs a week and then treating it as a flex. @n8

all arabs that move to the west get hit with the hard reality of working in Europe and the US and immediately miss living back home even if you were only scraping by money-wise.

@ferrarilegends Funny enough a buddy of mine agreed with this. "sure we were poor as shit but at least we were experiencing a life more than 2 days every week or so, and then 10 years before we die."
Fuck me that's brutal.
@n8

its why most of the older people that become well off just take their money they made and go back home, or they still keep their businesses around in the US and use that money back home to game the system.

@ferrarilegends see, I used to think it was laziness, now I realize it's just giving a shit about the quality of your life. @n8

exactly. american society was brainwashed to think that actually caring about yourself and your family over money and the small, statistically miniscule chance to generate lots of wealth by stepping thru the career ladder is laziness.

@ferrarilegends It's also worth noting how annoyingly narrow the definition of family is in the USA. In the Middle East and Asia "family" is broad as fuck. In the USA they have to preface with "extended family" if it's not your immediate family which is dumb. @n8

even in the middle east, you'll see children raising their own families at their parents home. even some of the more well off families in the middle east will just expand their houses into mini-houses to let their kids raise their families in, or they'll just live near each other.
Yeah, back in the countryside of the Philippines it isn't uncommon for a whole chunk of a street to be made up of relatives. Why, I could just walk down the round and I'd be able to stumble into the abode of an aunt or great-uncle I've yet to meet. They're all close knit too, very common to be visited before dinner time by a relative trading part of their dinner for a part of yours to share with their part of the family.

@Rhodesian_YuKari With the housing market as fucked as it is, this may become something America has to deal with. It's also why my buddy was shocked that my parents charge me rent for living at home (housing market is fucked here, rental market even worse)

"yeah so they're charging me rent?"
"White people do that?"
@ferrarilegends @n8

It's gay that the excuse is so that they get used to it when they're renting a home out somewhere away; there's no arguing that the money would be better saved for emergencies or as payment to actually own a home instead of renting it.

The way I look at it now, I think the Jews tricked Whites into Jewing their own

@Rhodesian_YuKari I just want a place that's comfy for my future husband and I. It's really simple yet for some fucking reason the Jews decide I can't have that. I'm not a difficult man to please, I just want to be comfortable. It's why I hate the boomer "money can't buy happiness" phrase.

I don't want a solid gold Ducati, I want a stable job where I can support myself and my partner on a reasonable work life balance and live a decently normal life.
