An Indecent proposal: money for love? or love for money?

Hi Genericbe, Personally, I had a traumatic experience about an indecent proposal. I was going home from school and this car pulled over and I was the driver was going to ask directions. I was tired since I came from a grueling lecture and the weather was so hot as well. The driver was a middle-aged man, looked decent enough so I leaned over and was prepared to help him. He was talking about opening a business and was bragging that he recently earned a lot of cash. I was so clueless! In the end he spelled it out for me. One night for this amount. Grrr! I was so mad at him. I quickly left and went home. I really learned a hard lesson that day. I am a practical person but I would never ever accept any indecent proposal.

This is a really simple question for me, but I have to ask first: would I be rich for the rest of my life? Is there a guarantee for that security? Or even, not rich but always have the means to feed and protect myself? Because, you know. I'd easily trade a few years of passion for a lifetime of security, no question. The "love of your life" can only stay as long as you're eating well and have a roof over your head, after all. Without basic needs, love flies out the window and I'd rather eat well than have those few years of passion. ...then again, I AM going about this from the point of view of someone who's never had that passion, haha, so I am all practical and non-emotional about it. :p
