A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

In both cases it's more problems, it's just that most money problems can be fixed with more money.

More money actually just inflicts the "mo' money" status debuff which multiplies your problems, not adds to it

It's because people can have more money, and they know that when they do there's more problems. But having no money is simply unaffordable.

Because it is an untrue statement

No money may only be one problem, but it's a very big one.

There will always be problems and money offers solutions to a lot of problems. So even if your problems grow, it's possible for your solutions to grow faster.

More money = more problems.

No money/little money = problems

No money no problems means we have moved past a currency based economy and have achieved true enlightenment as a species.

Maybe next life...

You need your basic needs to be met

I do not see the “more problems” part on “more money”, you can always repurpose it or get rid of it until you are fine, doubt how that option would be problematic…
