Why being poor and broke makes ambitious people depressed
Why does being poor and broke make ambitious people depressed?, that's easy, cause ambitious people are forward moving, thinking, and unless the character on TV show 'Bewitched', one can't just 'wish' stuff into their life, you have to buy it.
When you have money you can plan, without money you just dream, dream and dream some more, until old, and to tired to care anymore.
Money, or access to funding (loans, credit line, high salaried income) is the key to acquiring what you want.
Having $200,000 dollars in checking account would make most happier than having $200.00 in checking account.
In this world money = security, while alive, and people who say not are full of it.
Everything takes money, whether yours or another's.
Why do some people have money, and others do not?
That's to long to answer in one post, to many variables, but don't ever think just blindly working hard, physically laboring, will make you wealthy, cause it won't.
The richest people on the planet, in your community, do not 'labor' for their wealth, others may labor for them, but they themselves do not labor...(with the exception of professional athletes)
But even after a while, most older athletes realize that laboring for wealth has very limited life span, and so instead invest, or 'brand', or get into sales, money multipliers.
Laboring hard is a good lesson to learn when 15, but not so much at 45, when older and health degrading.
I'm getting off track, bottom line to this post is when have money, it allows you to plan, and fulfill dreams and desires, to always think forward, to accomplish goals, create projects, open business, expand a business, go to college, get trained, but reliable vehicle, travel, vacation, buy nice stylish clothing, and more.
But when broke, or near broke, bear and chips is about it.
If down, once you get the 'taste' of money again, sometimes that's all it takes to inspire self again to go out and do whatever.

Depression and the many layers of
Many things can trigger depression, in non chemically depressed people
1. Doing the same thing over and over again, with no 'gain', no results, referring to work, income.
To work and labor for years, yet have no more saved up in bank account than homeless bum on the street.
2. Lack of being loved, feeling loved, or having another to love, such a reality for one can also trigger depression over time, especially if have 'values', and most people do, even 'ugly' criminal types have values, and need to be loved, even though they may not appreciate that love given to them, and or abuse those who love them.
3. Both of the above, combined with a sense of 'the end', or ones on mortality.
4. And add illness to the above, and a person who was once strong, could become depressed.
5. A lack of belief in 'God' or a afterlife...could also trigger depression in some, for without a 'afterlife', what's the purpose of 'current life', some may reason.
But better if here from depressed person so they can tell you why're they're depressed rather than a list of reasons why people do become depressed...

I think I'm burned out on never getting anywhere and always being stuck in repeating cycle of things that don't bring me joy, to include the job I'm at, which effects my schedule, my off time.
This has been one of the most bland, non creative, weekends I've had in a while, cause seems I'm more worried about going back to work, that environment, than my weekend, which is about up now.
That's a sure sign of burnout.
Social media is meaning less and less to me, my opinions, anything, cause none of it matters.
I feel like just walking away from it all, but even though would create issues.
I just know I'd rather have less, feel freer, and struggle a bit, than to barely maintain year after year while getting no where.
And drinking doesn't help, cause all that does is make you feel like problem is solved, while drunk, then when sober, it isn't.
The world has shrank, and there just doesn't seem to be anywhere to go anymore, no more 'promise land', for wherever you wind up, same of stuff, just different place.
Some times just want to go homeless, and not work at all, or very little, and just feel free, and not obligated to things or cycles or payments that suck the life out of me.

And it annoys me that seems every freagin horror movie I view always deals with, is totally centered around 'white' women getting chopped up.
Can't these 'white' male writers, be more creative than just always making it appear as if 'horror' only circles privileged 'white gals'...no wonder all abuse that takes place in Hollywood, I mean all this gore is coming from the minds of male writers.

What do you do when?
What do you do when you finally realize you're just not love or accepted by anyone on this planet?
What do you do?
How can you continue to 'Love those' who simply wish you'd die on the spot.
Not for being evil, or doing wrong, but simply for their lack of humanity within.
This idea that Jesus died for 'our sins' is a joke to me now, why would they??
As evil, racist, mean, cruel, as people are, what's worth dying for?
I think it's a fib.
It would make more sense to die for ducks, or geese, or mice or elephants, than to die for man.
This idea that man is 'good' is a myth...camoflauged through elaborate stories and tales, and movies and theater...truth is man is very dark and brutal on the inside, always has been, always will be.
The only time man is 'calm' is when said 'man' or 'peoples' get their way.
Man is insecure, scared and frightened.
Gods?...what are those?
Gods are simply the monster within man manifesting themselves in order to justify evil against others.

Is being unmotivated a sign of depression I wonder?
If just wanting to be left alone, if not seeing anymore real purpose in anything if not doing what makes you happy, a sign of depression I wonder or a layer of?
Cause lately I just don't want to go anywhere, especially when off work, all I want to do is sit at home.
The idea of having to go to DMV for tag renual totally depresses me, the idea of going to public place or space, and just sitting there around others who don't want to be there either, totally depresses me.
It all seems useless, more hard earned money, going to 'fixed' State expenses while you go broke.
No one cares, it doesn't matter, just live, be quiet and be glad you're a citizen, so it goes.
Billions floating around the economy, billions going for this, billions going for that, yet so many nearly dead broke.
Oh well, let me get on with this miserable day...at least for me it is, so far.

Not in the most optimistic mood right now, not at all, for very uncertain work week ahead, schedule may change, and schedule is everything as you get older.
I refuse to work jobs anymore that have all kinds of odd hours, wake up hours and so forth, the days of me sacrificing health for low wage are just over.
The days of me believing that 'If you just work hard, you'll get ahead', are over.
Getting ahead has to do with being smart, not working hard.
Certain people take care of you at a job, and then they resign, and it's like starting over, and the true nature of others, the boss, could come out.
Just not a fun week ahead.
Sunday nights always the worst for me, and probably others who are on a m-f work schedule.
Cause you never really find yourself until Sunday night, when all is calm.
I just don't really feel hopeful anymore about much of anything.
People lie, services lie, they say your Podcast getting out on certain frequency, then come to find out they're full of crap, yet still paying.
The wealthy can really be slime balls, no one who's nice and honest really becomes wealthy.
Right now I do feel depressed, and there's nothing I can do about it.

Why do I always attract people to me who 'subtract' rather than who 'add' to my life energy? People who want from you, but really have nothing to give, people who want your time, but don't really want to invest in you, people who want your attention, but don't ever offer to help pay for anything (No, that's not want I mean) I mean in business sense, as in projects. Even though I have barely nothing, it's always I who has to be generous with what little I do have. Yet if I lose what little I do have I'll cease to having meaning to anyone. I just can't get myself excited about today, nothing today will bring me joy. Have to call repair person, which means I'll be dealing with a cheat, a con, which means I'll lose hard earned money to get something fixed. You're criminalized in America for being poor, it's a sick system, or i should say punished. Yet I'm suppose to care about people starving in Africa, well, do they care about me or us over here, those of us struggling over here? I doubt it. I fight to pay my own bills, yet I'm suppose to cry over someone in Uganda? I don't wish them bad, but nor do I have time to worry about their affairs when I have my own struggles. This idea that all Americans are rich, like what you see on TV shows, in the movies, what a myth and a joke. Why do you think so much crime in the U.S.?

Not really depressed but rather frustrated with my whole social enviornment.
I feel very alienated.
I feel like all my talents, looks, good behavior and more just wasted living around those who fail to see such qualities.
All the males look like goblins to me and the females may as well be aliens from another planet.
I can't relate to none of them nor them to me.
Everything just seems dull and grey to me.
And those who move around me, next to me, are never the types I can get alone with (get along fine, but life is about more than just being decent quiet neighbors)
I mean why can't attractive single people ever move next to me?, why does it always gotta be burned out looking types, why can't people who are in their prime ever move next to me?
Instead it's always broken odd weird family araingments, like Grandmothers raising off spring along, or _____ urban type ______ raising who knows what without regular _______ around.
Why can't just a regular single attractive woman move next to me, with no ______, or even single attractive _____ _______, I mean what do I care?
I just want someone to chat with now and then about anything.
Everyone is so closed off these days, guarded, paranoid.
And my work enviornment is just as bland, all the W country dudes let their bodies rot, no teeth, hairy faces ect, and all the urban B dudes look odd to me as well, and the urban F's dress in weird styles I can't really relate to.
I'm just lost I guess....and all males seem so very short, like midgets, pudgy midgets.
Just seems in real life no one looks as people look on TV or in the movies.
Instead all day long everyone I observe, while driving, they all look burned out, in wheel chairs, old and spent.....where's the youth!
America's not reproducing like days of old, and starting to see the effects of that.
The only youth you see now are immigrant youth.
W youth are vanishing, and it's the young that make you feel inspired to go on.
Seems the only people breeding anymore or urban single women and immigrants.
As if seeding the planet with future violent felons or something.
People who want to make America worse again or something.
Oh ye, back to 'the youth', particularly W youth, they're all strung out on opiods now, addiction, and dying left and right.
The urban drug pushers have snaked their way into small rural neighborhoods now (about 10 years ago or longer actually, and the cartels also)
So the prestine W youth that was protected do to geography, no longer so, now they're strung out to, and dying as a result.
Seems the only place you can find physical beauty anymore is among the fiscal elite, those with money who can afford to hide way out in safe guarded neighborhoods.
But the rest of society is socially collapsing, it's scary to watch, and now the measles are coming back (immigrants) E boli and more.
Housing prices out of control, rent prices, out of control, pay way to low to sustain anything.
Where's the light?
As soon as save up money to leave, then vehicle breaks down and costs to repair the very amount you saved up to move with...it just seems cruel.
All of social media controlled by foreign moderators who snuff out any American who seems patriotic, or censor I should say.
America is dying, the heartland of American is dying, I see it every day.
And it's being replaced by monsters.

1. Depression is when you're trying to stop drinking, and then find yourself in that 'in between' mode, where you're not drunk, getting drunk, nor are you at low point, rather in between both points. I mean you're alert and OK, but not 'happy', feels kind of like a grey spot, not happy, not sad, just there.
2. Depression is not really knowing what to do with social media anymore.
All the big social media sites turn me off with their shadow banning and all, I mean the only acceptable comments anymore is if you act like a dense consumer or if you spout off anti-American noise, than the foreigners who manage social media will leave you alone.
3. Depression is being lonely at times, but realizing there's no one out there you could be paired with, and the people or person you're drawn to anyways, never ends up liking you back, or are married, or are in relationship.
4. Depression is living around people you have absolutely nothing culturely in common with, not the music, mannerism or outlook on life.
5. Depression is realizing your time on this Earth is limited, and that when gone will not have made a single difference to anyone...Knowing that at funeral no one will show up accept the Janitor, or better yet knowing you'll probably die, get shipped to morgue, then buried in some unmarked grave spot.
6. Depression is forgetting what it feels like to be in love or to feel loved.

Depression is forgetting what it feels like to be in love or to feel loved. Social media is basically meaningless, I mean ye, ye get 1000 views here, 20,000 there, but so what, views don't equate into anyone caring about you or wanting to be your friend. In the olden days if you met 1000 people in real life, at least 100 of them would become your friend, I mean like talk on the phone together type of friend, where as on YouTube, ect, you can have 50,000 views, and 'nothing'....it's meaningless unless wanting to compile views simply to get 'paid' for those views.

Depression is not wanting to get up and leave your place for nothing, not to shop, not for nothing. Depression is not being interested in finding a new dead end job, same dead end policies, same dead in low pay.
Depression is finally seeing that hard work and grit does not equate into riches, it just means you come home tired.
