Do you really need that new car, the flat screen, the satellite TV service? Do you really need a big house and big house payments and big tax bills? Do you really need to put in 60 hours a week at a W-4 salary job, or can you get by working for cash and living modestly and frugally on your savings?

Who is John Galt?


I'm considering that, I'm between jobs now but have a good chance at taking a basic job in an auto parts store or one similar. I'm going to keep it, work hard, make enough to take care of Mom and my cats plus keep my old jalopy running. That way, I pay as little as I can in taxes. I live frugally, my TV is 26 years old, I have the first playstation and none of my computers are made past 1999. I do admit I think Ayn Rand is a little too absolutist but she does have a lot of wisdom where people can only take so much. Who is John Galt?
