Now for the whining. Yesterday, I was goin' totally gold digger on myself, which was totally creeping me out!
Now I ain't sayin' she a gold digger (When I'm in need)
But she ain't messin' with no broke n****s
But she ain't messin' with no broke n****s
Like that. Totally, 100%. I wanna be an architect or screenwriter when I get outta university, and neither of those pay very well. An architect makes a median income of about $56,000, which sure as hell isn't paltry. "But I wanna Beemer!" says my stupid-ass gold digger brain. And a screenwriter makes about $45,000 annually, which isn't bad compared to McDonald's. But I think I would live too ambitiously (fancy condo/house in a big city), plunge myself into debt, then eventually regret it.
I personally blame the temporary gold digger mentality on my school, a moderately-priced private school. It's cheap compared to some, but it's one of the most expensive in town, so lots of really rich families send their kids there for the day, while daddy fends off malpractice lawyers and mommy jets off to Siberia, where she's getting a pedicure. And opening a school for poor children. I guess not all families are that rich, but I constantly see my friends getting into BMW's and Mercedes-Benzes while I get into my mom's Honda. I'm not hatin' on Honda. Their cars rock. And all the kids want to be a doctor, or a lawyer, or an actor/singer. Which are perfectly fine professions. Well, maybe not the 2nd one... ;-) Those careers routinely make $100,000-plus a year. More than enough to buy a SoHo penthouse and a few luxury imports in the garages. Makes me kinda sick, but doctors deserve a lot of money. Maybe not $350,000-400,000, but a lot.
Oh well. I'm starting to get outta my gold digger rut.
