17.

Amidst a backdrop of dull resignation, my mind is racing in twenty different directions. Yes, I am a savage, but calling myself that increases the chances of a terrorist bombing a developed area. How do you balance things out, if you know that violence increases the more money you spend? Whatever you do, you lose, but duller taste buds or not, we simply have to take the most honorable course of action. I don’t know whether I am going to end up in the streets in a month’s time or not, but let’s face it, the most difficult and challenging part of increased wealth is the change of lifestyle. Suddenly, you are required to spend, and have etiquette. We will leave it dangling as to whether investment should be done or not with so little money, but the stress of having disposable income before achieving entrepreneurial success is almost too much to bear. Every rial I make not directly through my own efforts is like coins or paper money being inserted between my heart’s arteries, and were it not for the fact that excessive rigidness in bed is a punishment in its own right, we would have comatosed ourselves with our eyes wide open.
