# Don't Raise Your Standard Of Living

This is basically what Hiroyuki (the founder of 2ch and the curren
t owner of 4chan) has been saying, and I totally agree with him.

How much you can save money, and the minimum income you need for y
our survival largely depend on your standard of living. But loweri
ng the standard is often extremely hard, while raising is so easy.
For example, if you start to use a $300 earphone, you cannot satis
fy with a $50 earphone anymore. Therefore it is extremely importan
t not to raise the standard from the start.

Don't raise your standard, just because you entered a college, a c
ompany, &c. It will go full yandere and constrain you from being f
ree.
