I am an opportunist, don't get me wrong. If I find some chance I may make a lot of money, I'd look into it, but if I don't, it doesn't bother me.
@CIEIRMusic I may make posts on my own views.

I totally can relate. Though I have some differences.
1. I believe that very few people are capable of learning from history and changing their bad things.
2.I usually see a grim future most of the time>
3.Even though I view the 90s-2000s as a lot better than today, I do not view them as utopian.
4.I often feel like I need to sacrifice something I really love to give justice.
5.I do hate humanity, but I still have love for those who inspired me and loved me. And my friends.
6.I feel like in a few years, I will be the only one left with common sense.

I see. Well I offer some perspective of mine on your points.
1. It's true as a whole, we as a race never learn from our mistakes if we had, there'd be no war, nor poverty. Diseases and Famine on the other hand considering not all of them are man made, are something no one can help with unless they have the right stuff for it. Best we can do is encourage and guide those that have learned.
2. With me, everything seems grim, depressing and pointless and it's often a huge struggle to see something good or at the very least decent happen, be it for my sake or the sake of those around me. I treasure every good day I have, because I know it doesn't last long.
3. It wasn't a utopia, but we had better things back then. Anything is a Utopia compared to what's happening now though.
4. That depends. To put some perspective Gotham has a good quote regarding it. It was from a letter Thomas Wayne sent to Bruce when he first discovered the Batcave. He says to Bruce "You can't have both happiness and the truth. You have to choose. I beg of you, my son, please choose happiness. Unless... Unless you feel a calling. A true calling." What he meant is that a lot of people would do anything to be happy, which is ok, but the pursuit of truth, requires you to sacrifice said happiness, because simply when you do find out the truth about anything you wanted to know, it's not often something you'd like to hear even if you have to. Best advice I can give you on that, is try your hardest to be happy unless you feel it within your core that you need justice.
5. I don't hate humanity, as much as my views say otherwise, if anything I pity it. There are times when I feel like I'm not even human as I am not as selfish or greedy as most people, while anyone else that is sees me the problem.
6. I accepted that notion a long time ago, but that doesn't make me give up hope that there's someone or anyone else out there that does too. Over the years I've been on the net, I've met some interesting people. Good and bad. Unlike the real world, it's much harder to fall into clique behaviour because each individual has only some things in common with one group and some things in common with another. But point being is that when it comes to common sense, you are not alone. Aside from myself, I'm sure there are others out there who think and feel like you do.
