Oh right, *that's* why it never sleeps
It doesn't really go like that. It's not like someone in a poorly-paid job winning the pools.
It's their work; running a business, making money. It's what they *do*.
Yes. There's always somebody who wants more.
One may just as soon ask why a 25 year old Premier League footballer doesn't just jack it in and
say Sod all that training and dieting and PR guff for a laugh. The money is a consequence of the lifestyle, not the reason for it.
Sure. The Breaking Bad character Heisenburg pretended that he was making Meth and killing people
for the money for his family but eventually admitted that he was a criminal because he was good at it and he liked it.
Ah, yes. I didn't know all that. But it's right, I think.
A man's got to do what he's got to do, and a' that. It's the only way to be satisfied with life regardless of whether you make any money or not. Especially for blokes; girls have different "achievement ideals".
Of course, the educated middle-class office drone types, who never go anywhere or do anything, hate hearing this so such chaps are always written off as psychopaths or whatever, and their success somehow doesn't really count, is illegitimate.
Hey, us office drones have to make a living too, you know.
We can't all be glamorous gangsters and soldiers-of-fortune. Someone has to provide the regular goods and services. :shrug:
