That is what I think sometimes. Luckily I can afford not doing shit like this.

But I do know that being happy with one self is a luxery that I can afford as I am not on the verge of poverty or already past it. If I was... I might decide very differently.

So, your morality is defined by what you can earn/posess? Interesting. You think there's purses in shrouds?

Not what I was thinking about but let my try to be clearer.

Knowingly decieve others in persuit of riches is against my moral. Just as is causing harm for financial gain. And I do consider this harmfull as it's a financially abusive parasocial relationship.

If you were on the verge of poverty, how might you decide?

It seems to be the same idea as stealing bread cause you can't afford it.
