Megan asked this question about The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life:
This is not a a question exactly, but a pondering. Have I forgotten how to not give a f*ck? For much of my 20's and 30's I didn't give enough f*cks. Sometimes I think that if I had give more f*cks I'd have a lot more money by now. Lately I'm afraid I'm giving too many f*cks. I don't want to self-sabotage with all of my f*cks. What is the right balance of f*cks to give? And that's why I've added this book.

Money is not everything if you have enough to have a roof over your head and food on the table and a job, you are sorted, life should be great. I don't know if you have all that but if you do you take it for granted, Start giving a fuck about living a happy life, its not all about, the money. just my opinion, just think about it, worse things can happen in life.
